BLACK MONEY;
kindly read each and every line and do go through like a novel,story,: matters mentioned herein shall be helpful to eradicate and contain corruption, black money, etc....
• ONE SHALL ACT WITH FEARLESSNESS AND NOT WITH FEAR:*
SWAMI VIVEKANANDA*--"The earth is enjoyed by heroes-
this is the unfailing truth; be a Hero. Always say' I have no fear'.
Tell this to everybody--'Have no fear; fear is death, fear is sin,
fear is hell, fear is unrighteousness, fear is wrong life.
All the negative thoughts and ideas that are in this world have
proceeded from this evil spirit of fear...” Hence, act and make
others to act with fearlessness, God shall see that the wicked,
the vice, and the corrupt minded persons to perish once for all.
Hence be Brave....Do not engulf yourself in vicious circle at any cost...
let you be poor but be honest, sincere and with duty mindedness
and exhibit your integrity not for appreciation, rewards or medals.
To the point always and all the time be honest to the work,
to the words and action....Your reward shall be your Honesty,
you may be requiring some money to clear of the loans,
to run the family, or children’s education and what not,
but still be honest; check and discuss with you inner mind ;
it shall tell how dishonest you are and your wife nor your
children does not share your sin, ill gotten money, they just enjoy
as long as they can. Just see around all others may wish you but
heart and heart they hate you and talk about your corrupt practices,
may be in your absence. Hence do not let your life go in that line…

• Why then, there shall be some paper correspondence/letters to some one, it is to explain about his own integrity and honesty(by Hazare); let any one talk any thing; we are in a democratic country, every person shall be awaiting for chance to condemn/criticize/and or make out sarcastic remarks only to hurt you and your path.. there by you get demoralized to go further, that is all they achieved their target: The Lokpal Bill also takes several years to come for discussion as like that of 50% Reservation for Woman-- Bill; their- Political parties- if interested, then only any thing can be done with out any lapse of time; Some time during 2007 or so, the Centre started sending Draft Bill Papers appertaining to the Metro Railways Bill to the State Government for corrections, views etc., but abruptly they stopped the same and the State Government seems to have made out Draft Tramways Bill in place of Metro Railways Bill for A.P. State, and the Tramways Bill became an Act in due course, and now the Metro Railways System is found to be based for Metro Railways; If Government wants, every thing shall be made easy. Let there be some consciences amongst the Governmental bodies and the Jan Lokpal Bill aspirants like Mr. Hazare, make the Draft Bill public through Media/press and on line, take the views of the citizens and put forward the same in the Parliament for Discussion.

Alfred Sloan, the former Chief Executive Officer of The General Motors
while dealing with management
concepts remarked- ‘… I shall not tell you what to write, what to study, or
what conclusions to come to. This is your task. My only instruction to you is
to put down what you think is right as you see it. Do not worry about our reaction,
and do not concern yourself with the compromises that might be needed to make
your recommendations acceptable. There is not one executive in this company who
does not know how to make every singly conceivable compromise without any help
from you. But, he cannot make the right compromise unless you first tell him
what right is….
• Corruption has its own ways and means which in turn inter linked and connected
to politics of the nations, corrupt practices and intelligence inside and outside
the country like out IB?SIB?RAW/DRI...Getting nod and sanction for making
a Bill first to be introduced and then to become as an Act.. all procedures and
formalities depend on the political supports like the woman's bill which is still
pending...now where we stand is like selling the scrap as is where is condition...
whether you call it drat lokpal bill or amendment to Prevention of corruption Act..
. it takes its own time and course...say several years to go to become an Act..
• Sri. S.K. Ghosh, IPS, in his book’ The Light of Other Days’,
said ”... I can say quite candidly, while majority of police
officers want to be efficient and honest, and if there is an honest politician
in charge, there will be an honest Police Force. It is just that simple...”Sri.
D. N. Gautam, IPS, in his book ‘What is wrong with Indian Police’, expressed
the gospel truth in other words,”…The Indian Police have a typical
characteristic of being strong towards the weak and weak towards the
strong…’The observations made by Mr. P. Chidambaram, Union Minster while
inaugurating the second annual vigilance conference, at Chennai are worth found
to be quoted..’ the virus of corruption appeared to envelop the whole fabric of
society and when some people tended to be corrupt, even the honest people
became suspect…” (Indian Express- Daily News Paper- Hyderabad
Edition, dated 22-3-1988).It is thus surmised that the Police identification
and working varies with the changing political rulers and that the values by
segregating themselves from the society is also never the less polluting the
police –public relationship...The cordial principle of three ’Ds’—Duty,
Devotion and Discipline’ among the police personnel is very often lost sight
of.
• Corruption/White Collar Crimes/Black Money are all the
decorative matters of the personnel/personalities with
paraphernalia who strive hard by all means to get their
choice of money/ position to grab, to the extent possible to make
out the black money in to white money and vice versa, the vicious
circle continues to be adopted as long as they shall have the power,
Position, status, cadre and what not. The word greed and no
greed has no meaning when once joined hands with the
corrupt practices; they shall bow down to all types humiliations,
insults, and what not? There may be some or the other type
of explanations and excuses to over come the blame and their
joining hands with such persons, but the aim and object shall
be to get the money or money valued materials and or matters
for them. The system goes on.

<><><><><>
MOTHER- OLD AGE – A BLESSING OR A DOOM-A POINT OF VIEW.
( I am writing this ARTICLE not aiming about any person(s), but from the feelings expressed by several intellectuals, old aged senior citizens with whom I happened to converse and from whom I could gather the information about their inner hearts. The annotations, captions at some places used, does not necessarily be construed or to be applied to my (our) family alone; it is expressed to reflect and praise the MOTHERS who happen to face such agony, etc.)
There is a saying--" Those who knows the mother, knows the world”.
This caption might be true. But, ironically, he who does not care for the mother at least at the old age when she really require and expects actual help and assistance from his son…..what to call him…How to define him and in which language…
Just think and imagine the feelings of old aged persons of and above the age group of 50-60 years, who happens to live separately or away from their son(s).and of course the daughters...
This may happen on various accounts like:
• By virtue of their son living on account of job in some other state or country;
• Or in the course of living away from them though staying in the same city but living on account of their jobs, children’s education, or to be nearer to the place of working;
• may be in the course of love marriages; and
• May be on one or other account or pretext.
In general, it is found that they are not in a position to talk their parents-in particular with his mother; they find no time to visit to the mother’s house, if they stay in the same city, even during holidays, festivals or other festivities, at least to say hello, or to spend a little time to have consonance their aged parents/ to the mother.
Their offerings of excuses include heavy and unbearable job work, over time, late sittings at job work, or that they are not in a position to spare time to come from their place of residence, or other wise engaged, preoccupied on some other work.
It may heartening to hear from others that the so called son and his family members were seen at the restaurants, hotels, or at cinema halls, market places, or at the busy malls etc. The comments of the neighborhood, the relations, and of the friends at this old age found to be unbearable to them. The mother, or of course, the father, make out all sorts of excuses and explanations by supporting their son’s absence. But, the mental agony of the parents, their untold feelings, sleepless nights are and cannot be brought out through pen. Their swallowing of the expressions to cover up their inner feelings, the Atmaxobha and eyes always searching for their son and to listen to him are all found be a like their night vision.
The enormous money they possess, the relations they had, the friends, the authority, the power and the status they had, have found to be not coming to their rescue in replacing the sons’ presence with them. The old age homes, other’s counseling’s, etc, will they be of any help to them from making them to feel happy or to come out of their depressions, which I found that no person can recognize, replace , establish or detect.
Sadhana for Elation and Elevation is found to be the only solution for the mothers who are neglected and made alone to live by their sons. No smothering words can help in distracting their eyes eagerly looking at the gate side, ears wanting to hear his voice of affection and love,
But, but, but… what. ----what the sin she might have committed to loose all this love and affection from the son? What to write and how to console and convince her about the present position of her son, and his re-thinking of inbuilt imaginations and thoughts; redefining the works, words to suit to his conveniences. These revelations may be with a view to satisfy his wife alone at his cost of life, only to make her believe that he is taking full care, love and affection towards her/his wife. Or his not visiting his mother may also be to make her/his wife believe that he does not care his mother, father , other relations, and that he tries to make her believe that her/his wife’s versions as true and beyond doubt. How to change his mind set up and about misconceptions toward the divine mother.
Many of the people advocate the golden means saying that self effort and fate are like the two wheels of a chariot or are like a pair of scissors.
Whenever defeat stares us in the face, we try to console ourselves by ascribing the failure to our ‘stars’, to predestination or to the result of our deeds in the past lives.
Whatever may be their philosophical connotation, there can be no denying the fact that we ourselves must strive to elevate our lives.
We always adjust to the life’s spring and actions. We must bravely march forward. We must work with a sense of dedication with immense faith in our self-effort.
There is a saying to the effect that up to the sixth step it is human Endeavour and the seventh is divine favour. Has anyone in the world ever risen in life without sustained hard work backed by assiduousness and enthusiasm?
Can we ever be successful in any field of life if we idle away our life waiting for fate or fortune? Such a mentality will convert the man into a coward and a slave to sluggishness.
People commit many mistakes due to their weakness and then put the blame on the stars, fate and luck. It is said that a man who slipped carelessly and fell down blamed the fate and the ground for his fall.
Try to read with patience, in between the lines and not with severance or in hasty.
Be realistic to understand the situations, the consequences and the sequences that might have erupted from the beginning to the point of separation of lives- of the mother and the son. Just pity the mother, the son also, and for the matters encountered in her life and the dreams about and on the expectations of him she had. Imagine the stamina and the strength she had to sustain the draw backs, the push backs in her life to bring her son to the present position. The kicks of her son on the chest received during the early age as a kid and the joy she might have felt at that age.
And now when her son grew with maturity, in mind and developed his own thought revelations and the actions with self decision making to select and marry his life partner, reside separately and away from the mother, what explanations can any one put before her.
Her reconciliations from his child hood, she, as mother, might have pondered with joy andJubilations for the first actions of the son, receiving kicks on her chest, and now for the second actions. Who can imagine her feelings and rethinking of the past which are entirely different to her expectations?
She might have become a soft target to her belief or he might have become simpleton? He was rather a hot stuff with sanguine this affair…? Is he became sandpaper or a sandwich in his life and with the life of his mother in the name and style of living separately on one or the other pretext with his family?
Is it due to the love and over helmed affection and sympathy towards his family? Or he has adapted to suit to his convenience to visit the mother and satisfy his other loved ones.
With all the above regurgitates and surmises, still I have a belief that he is a person with sanity and still did not loose love and affection toward his mother, then why and how the situations can be changed and what is the solution to resolve the matter. I have no answer, except to rely on the God.
Even if we concede that there is fate that hinders us from reaching our chosen goals, still we can overcome the fate through our diligence and also by awakening our spiritual strength. Had there been an omnipotent fate, concepts lie fair and foul, virtues and vices, spiritual strength would have been unheard of.
Human beings are not a mere sod of earth or a log of dead wood. No one can ever prosper in life if they harbours the feeling that they are not responsible for their actions, that it is fate which makes them behave as they does and that they are pushed and pulled helplessly by fate.
He who blindly follows the invisible fate is propelled by extreme ignorance which cannot but precipitates his downfall.
I firmly believe that only he who surrenders himself at God’s feet and prays to God whole-heartedly can regard himself as a machine and God as the driving force. Especially noteworthy is the fact that such an individual can do no wrong and can do no harm to others. This great man will be an embodiment of selflessness always aspiring for the weal and welfare of all in the world.
I boldly and with pride ascribe these connotations to the mother, who might have faced and or facing the wrath and the sufferings of the life, that too without even whispering to others.
But, now, at this age, when she requires a helping hand and counseling – the same is missing from her son. Fortune favours the deserving…: Patience pays….But. At what stage?, will it be of any help to her when she can not be in a position to relish, realize, and understand the same, except staring at him and dump founded by the actions of his son.
The GOD - the almighty only shall help the Mother and resolve, if He can.

seized properties to the government…
…
The one who has the power of realization is the one who can bring transformation.
When something goes wrong we immediately begin to look for excuses, or
explanations, why that mistake happened. This finishes our power of realization
and we will not be able to recognize our own mistake. Then we will not be able
to work at improving ourselves and we will not be able to bring any transformation.
Instead of looking for excuses for what all happened, we need to take the opportunity
to check within ourselves and see our own mistake(s). When we recognize our mistake,
however small it may be, we will be able to work on it. Only when we are able to realize
our own mistake, will/shall we be able to bring about transformation in ourselves.
why there shall be paper correspondence/letters to some one to explain about his own
integrity and honesty; let any one talk any thing; we are in a democratic country, every
person shall be awaiting for chance to condemn/criticize/and or make out sarcastic
remarks only to hurt you and your path.. there by you get demoralized to go further,
that is all they achieved their target: The Lokpal Bill also takes several years to come
for discussion as like that of Women’s Bill; their- Political parties- if interested,
then only any thing can be done with out any lapse of time;
•
Corruption has its own ways and means which in turn inter linked and connected
to politics of the nations,corrupt practices and intelligence inside and outside
the country like out IB?SIB?RAW/DRI...Getting nod and sanction for making
a Bill first to be introduced and then to become as an Act.. all procedures and
formalities depend on the political supports like the woman's bill which is still
pending...now where we stand is like selling the scrap as is where is condition...
whether you call it drat lokpal bill or amendment to Prevention of corruption Act..
. it takes its own time and course...say several years to go to become an Act.. see
the case of Hyderabad Metro Railways-first the Draft Bill was to be taken up by
the Centre but eventually the State taken up and drafted tramway bill only for
the HMR, fully owned and being organised and constructed by the State and not
by the Centre through AP Tramways Act, then where we stand in Law,
the Constitution,and all other Provisions,schedules and what not... we are /
have to just wait and see like the country has seen Jythohiba Phule as Mahatma
and after 100 years another Mahatma-Gandhi- came in to get freedom for India..
We got lot of patience and getting along and wait and see ....attitude...

Seshavikrala
Sri. S.K. Ghosh, IPS, in his book’ The Light of Other Days’,
said ”... I can say quite candidly, while majority of police
officers want to be efficient and honest, and if there is an honest politician
in charge, there will be an honest Police Force. It is just that simple...”Sri.
D. N. Gautam, IPS, in his book ‘What is wrong with Indian Police’, expressed
the gospel truth in other words,”…The Indian Police have a typical
characteristic of being strong towards the weak and weak towards the
strong…’The observations made by Mr. P. Chidambaram, Union Minster while
inaugurating the second annual vigilance conference, at Chennai are worth found
to be quoted..’ the virus of corruption appeared to envelop the whole fabric of
society and when some people tended to be corrupt, even the honest people
became suspect…” (Indian Express- Daily News Paper- Hyderabad
Edition, dated 22-3-1988).It is thus surmised that the Police identification
and working varies with the changing political rulers and that the values by
segregating themselves from the society is also never the less polluting the
police –public relationship...The cordial principle of three ’Ds’—Duty,
Devotion and Discipline’ among the police personnel is very often lost sight
of.
•
Annaji ! Please keep marching with determination. Indians, as a nation,
is with you for the just cause you have forged before the ruling government.
• There is a saying--" Those who knows the mother, knows the world”.
This caption might be true. Here, your mother is your inner mind and
the conscience .But, in the case of white collar crimes or corrupt practices
or accepting money from what ever may be the source of working by
killing or sidelining the consciousness, and the cosine with corrugated
mind lean toward compromise for personal gain by all means, that is all,
you are doomed and swing into corrupt practices;
Always try to uplift the right matters and respect them with
least nods or so at the right time for prosperity without fear
and favour; like wise one shall not focus on personal gains
and/or material gain interests in weight but for prospective
matters that the Organization shall come up like the Honest
of all and above the sky. Instead of pin pointing and trying
to find fault with other’s views and vision on any matter if
expressed, or trying to adopt ways and methods by trying or
clouding the Intelligence reports concerning to the men and
materials or by fully depending on the others working capabilities,
try always to find out factual matters.
Corruption/White Collar Crimes/Black Money are all the
decorative matters of the personnel/personalities with
paraphernalia who strive hard by all means to get their
choice of money/ position to grab, to the extent possible to make
out the black money in to white money and vice versa, the vicious
circle continues to be adopted as long as they shall have the power,
Position, status, cadre and what not. The word greed and no
greed has no meaning when once joined hands with the
corrupt practices; they shall bow down to all types humiliations,
insults, and what not? There may be some or the other type
of explanations and excuses to over come the blame and their
joining hands with such persons, but the aim and object shall
be to get the money or money valued materials and or matters
for them. The system goes on.
• ONE SHALL ACT WITH FEARLESSNESS AND NOT WITH FEAR:*
SWAMI VIVEKANANDA*--"The earth is enjoyed by heroes-
this is the unfailing truth; be a Hero. Always say' I have no fear'.
Tell this to everybody--'Have no fear; fear is death, fear is sin,
fear is hell, fear is unrighteousness, fear is wrong life.
All the negative thoughts and ideas that are in this world have
proceeded from this evil spirit of fear...” Hence, act and make
others to act with fearlessness, God shall see that the wicked,
the vice, and the corrupt minded persons to perish once for all.
Hence be Brave....Do not engulf yourself in vicious circle at any cost...
let you be poor but be honest, sincere and with duty mindedness
and exhibit your integrity not for appreciation, rewards or medals.
To the point always and all the time be honest to the work,
to the words and action....Your reward shall be your Honesty,
you may be requiring some money to clear of the loans,
to run the family, or children’s education and what not,
but still be honest; check and discuss with you inner mind ;
it shall tell how dishonest you are and your wife nor your
children does not share your sin, ill gotten money, they just enjoy
as long as they can. Just see around all others may wish you but
heart and heart they hate you and talk about your corrupt practices,
may be in your absence. Hence do not let your life go in that line…
INNOVATION; MBA__ADMINISTRATION AND MANGEMENT:
ON SAFETY AND SECURITY OF PERSONS/Personnel
AND THEIR BELONGINGS;
INCLUSION AS A SUBJET MATTER
IN THE MBA MAIN STREAM OF STUDIES-
ARTICLE (Part: 1): Industrial security system and Intelligence Services: safety and security of the personnel-physical and personal through administrative and management system:
In so far as the Human Body is concerned, whether it is of the male, female, child, it has its own Values and Cultures, safety and security in the society; it is now well accepted formulae that the Medical science and Technology has specifically and in particular recognized its value and merits. They have advance their steps in Human Body utilization through S&T for obtaining, taking the entire/part of the body’s parts, in whole or in loose parts, at a particular required time or from time to time as and when required by them.
The Human Body, alive or dead, as required by the medical professionals, make use the same which include blood, tissues, platelets, and other parts like the kidneys, limbs, etc or other contents whether with the knowledge of the person or relatives, known persons…This type of utilization of Human Body parts or blood, tissues, etc, might have become a boon for some one (owners of the body) but in fact has found to have become a doom to others; and for some others, who goes for adaptation of illegal means a business tycoon. It has found to have become just like that of a sausage.
At times, news appeared goes to show that the matter of extraction of the human body’s parts etc goes savagely, money’s worth splices by the vested interests or by splinter groups. Some say that even the umbilical cord is also useful in medical science and technology system during grafting, transplantation, anatomy, autopsy, therapeutics, experimental research and the like.
Now it has become a patent like thing-‘Human Body’ as property, living or dead for most of the matters.
Like in the medical terminology the human body is most useful on many matters, but if once it is commercialized for a price in the market in future like any other commodity, where shall we stand? But for Gods sake, one shall not Value the Body or its parts, living or dead, with some ’Price’ or its cause to be equated with its effects; with growing and unabated illegal trends in Human Body extraction activities as seen in news papers and cinemas on various reasons, it is comprehending/felt that old saying about the Property concept is also being applied to Human Body and that of slavery system is found to be recycling, if not now, but in future if one shall ignore all the illegal, corrupt practices, just by ignoring medical ethics and mayhem with all precondition’s and records, slogan Mayday comes in.
No one is found to be thinking of the future on these issues and the issue concerning to the safety and physical security of persons while they work for an organization or while they in a recognized Arena, like the train platforms, while traveling in a train, on road; security system has become on no mans land, either the State nor the Centre takes its full pledged responsibility and liability to safe guard the interests of the rail passengers while on platform or in a train; then how about their personal belongings being carried with them. It is opined that on this aspect industrialist, intellectuals, the VIPs/VVIPS, Indian Railways for its rail passenger, the States/Central government, MBAs, Bureaucrats and the like might have not taken serious view or might be ‘hare-brained’.
Let there be a Law/Act to make one single and uniformed Police Force( now-two-GRP-State’s governments & RPF-Centre) over the Indian Railways to deal with all the Law & Order and crime matters duly making the Force to work under one command, one Competent Authority as aspired in 2006 by the (Former) Honorable President of India while presenting Colours to the RPF.
Just observe the seminars, conferences, meetings and a lot on international level or with in India, or organized by the departments, Ministries etc, there shall be no representative from the Security /force and if present, he shall be figure head, with out comments on security aspect, etc. If any security related question arises, they just pass it on to the Police/or the person present to look into it and that is all, the matter is treated as closed.
Most of the Industries, Organizations, Companies, Banks, Public/Private sectors, Governmental Bodies, utilizes the services of Private Security Services through Contract/outsourcing system, a few utilize the services of the CISF, and the Indian Railways in addition to the RPF, GRP, also utilize Private Security services at some selected Arena.
It is opined that most of the MBAs, Bureaucratic, including the PSOs, Banks, Indian Railways, have at any time made any serious debate on this type of vital issues in their top level conferences, seminars , any person raised the issues concerning the Act on Private Security Agencies prevailing in India, and its utilization, and or about the personal/physical safety and security of the persons working for their industry or for that reason about the rail passengers in and around their premises and in trains; the safety aspect to them found to about the fire safety, mechanical/equipment safety etc.
Leave alone on this issues, whether any State Government’s Police System verified and checked any of the Private Security Agencies in the real context of the applicability of the Act-‘The Private Security Agencies (regulation)Act, 2005, and its Rules; whether any State Government made out /adopted these Rules to suit to them, are some of opinions/questions raised during some discussions.
Whether any Organization, industry etc. while engaging one or the other Private Security personnel to work in their establishment verified the Agencies’ records of its management details, record of security guards, supervisors, customers incoming and outgoing ,vehicles, duty roster, photo IDs, its verification, finger prints, license of the Security Agencies engaged by them issued by the State Government/Police, training certificate of security guards issued by the Licensed Training Agency/Police, Character and Antecedent Certificate issued by the State Police Authority, individual self declaration certificate about their previous working, training, integrity, etc., It is opined that they find no time to verify on such matters.
VIPs/VVIPs/other Dignitaries, including some private persons are being protected and safeguarded—personal and physical security by one or more Police personnel with or without arms as per their entitlement.
This personal safety and security guarding system for them is adopted to secure the person’s safety and security from internal or external attacks wile they are at home, or in office, or while on travel by road, by train, or while they move on roads,processions,rallies,demonstrations,exhibitions,inspections,melas,and the like.
Their physical Body is well guarded by the security personnel from all corners even while they are on dais, platforms, trains, etc.
Why then the same security is not extended to the staff, the rail passengers, the men at work in the industries, etc. There shall be a Systematized security system for them also.
In the MBA manifesto also there shall be subject included as a specialization on the personal/personnel safety and security aspect in its administration and management system.
ARTICLE (Part: 2): Industrial security system and intelligence Services
In any industry or organization, security system and adaptation of Intelligence deployment is found be most neglected system and poorly employed with meager perks and fully depending on one or the other unorganized Security Agencies/Forces or through Contractors’ Agencies who might have not even registered their names in accordance with “The Private Security Agencies (Regulation) Act, 2005”, but they form as a part and parcel of big establishments, Organizations with sophisticated security systems and well established and (un) trained personnel with all the required mandatory Data as per the above Act.
They may be from ex-Army, Police, CPOs/other Armed Forces of the Union of India, and the like but, it may and should have been a concern of a well organized organization to check up their registration and dealings as per the guide lines laid in the above Act.
The present system of working in any industry by any professional or for that reason any personnel is to get more and more perks and they are in fact found to be least bothered or interested to find out the ways and means to apply their awareness and mind to bring growth to the organization by which they are employed. This matter is in respect of personal safety and security of their employees while inside and/or out side their Arena. What ever their level of the management cadre, they first think of their purse, take home salary and other ways and means to come closer to the Boss and as to how to get higher and higher positions or promotions.
For this type, they tend to express their work capabilities and workmanship only to that extent and till such time they get higher perks and upgraded with higher position. Their aim is found to be to work with such and such organization/s for such a period say around 4-5 years and get themselves recognized or organize their know how on their professional matters of interest and look for the right time to jump over to any other organization for extra perks and elevation which may include, a chance and leap to serve in other Organizations/countries and so on.
At this point of juncture itself the organizations security and inside story is becoming as the target and how much of the matters are discussed out side the office hours as gossip is not taken care of by the Management or its Managers/ Board of directors. They feel that it is a matter of routine in nature. That is all. There the actual story of Intelligence matters are leaked out or to that matter the security aspect, management weakness, exposure are coining out.
May be the information talked about is of any importance or not, to the person/personnel who spell out, the same is openly discussed, including that of the boss/heads of the departments, other weaknesses, their family history, and the people’s movements. The Competent Security personnel and their words who have been employed are not taken into confidence by the management, or by the Board of Directors; their presence and suggestions or the advice on security aspects are least taken for discussion which include the intelligence gathered on the industry’s physical and or on personnel working patterns and so on… In most of the conferences, meetings, seminars the security personnel presence is not sought for unless and until the management feel of insecurity…
Even if, by chance, are present in such meetings, they are asked not to open up their minds unless they ask to do so, and even if they ventilate their news about some personnel, it was just ignored and at times, the person (against whom the information was given in adverse) was asked to be careful as he is being watched.
There may be some differential equations between the working system and security deployment between the Central/State Governmental Organizations and the private/or the public sector organizations. But in most of the systems, the internal, the physical security of men and materials and that of the organization’s safety and security is a matter of concern.
In these days of competitive Intelligence hangovers and economic or industrial bypassing and awaiting a chance for intrusion, lean- over, take-over, the security systems and services are found to be playing a vital role under ground even with out the knowledge of the management and they(their working system) are not leak proof.
Insiders or to that matter, the family members, are the most targeted persons by the opponents, who are outwardly and in open terms seems to be the best coordinators, or the partners in all matters.
Industrial or education tours, visits by important persons accompanied by un known persons at specific intervals is the most watch dog situation for an industry who have not adopted to utilize the sophisticated intelligence trained security personnel.
Physical security of men, their material/belongings, and that of the industry is very much important, but it is also very much essential to get good intelligence officers, whose integrity shall be tested by reputation and not by the medals, ranks, status, position, and other rewards. The overt and the covert acts of the insiders and also the outsiders-visiting the organizations on one or the pretext or for the expansion, business deals, research scholars, celebrities, is also to be under watch dog system.
At least some of them (of the Management) are the soft persons through whom the matters are leaked out. This type of intelligence system working is not for material gain, but aimed to find out the ways and means to get the loop holes to be used in future course or when time permits and bounce upon for its merger, closure, etc. Even at these junctures, the security services, and the personnel utilized are of no use to the organization, as they are useful for nothing and not meant or trained for such activities.
This is at times used as competitive intelligence network through individuals or group of highly placed persons, against whom the lower or middle management security personnel have no approach to them. That is the weakness of the organization, which had no fore thought on such developments. Gathering information/intelligence is an Art- a systemized way of approach of the weak minded or the persons on some need-or who are/ can be pinned down for the three Ws-wealth, wine and women or of such nature. This Art cannot be equated with any matter of procedural practices, which can be just trained and adopted by specialized personnel alone, who are being utilized by the other organizations, even who/they might of in friendly nature, including partners?
No organization, to my knowledge and belief is found to be having specially employed any such security system personnel who are being utilized for collection of intelligence, assimilation or dissemination on matters of security system of its organizational set up so far.
In intelligence gathering on what ever subject or matter, there can be no legal or illegal means which are designed to be adopted or not to be adopted. The matters depend on the organizational set up of standards, its status, economic, and on competitiveness over national or international systems. All the matters depend upon the situation and the person on whom they are going to be taped or tapped, or dented upon.
It is not to be misunderstood as trapped, before tapping, they find out all types of information, weakness, rigidity, and the religious background, disgruntled or dissatisfied personnel, susceptible to or not, but they sanitize the matters and adopt suitable forms to suit to the situation of adoptability, etc.
Espionage, sabotage, other types of criminal activities shall not be clubbed with the security and intelligence working as they are to be dealt separately and independently like counter intelligence, surveillance, counter espionage, cyber crimes, white collar crimes, etc; they shall have to be dealt separately even though they may overlap or inter related in terms and on working aspect.
Economic imbalance, auditors reports, taxes, customs, tenders, in fights for power and authority, trade union activities, for and/or against the management, logistics--adjustments, or theft of materials, machinery failures, present trends of contract/outsourcing systems-- of personnel, drivers, cabs, are some of the fields where they might be interested and a tool for targeting its down fall, or surrender to others, etc.
Most of Organizations, including that of the Governmental Bodies, PSOs, does not adopt or go for their Vehicle’s GPR/GPRS system, may be that most of the vehicles are being taken on hire and being utilized for their personal/private purpose, usage, and with out log books and if this GPRS system introduced their movements are and shall be on record. They may feel to hide them.
In this aspect one has no say on the white collar criminals of the organization’s-insiders who adopt, or opt for wrongful gain, personal gain, and having become easy to contributory or compromiser’s formulae with others and such person’s identity and exposure may become a problematic issue which may ultimately reflect on its- management working aspect itself.
This may lead to lot of panic in the heads of the departments, chair-person and the CMD/or MDs and weeding out such personnel shall become a gigantic task with out getting the matter leaked out.
It was brought out that most of the companies now a day are inclined for employing their own security personnel, on the apprehensions that this may lead to have rights and privileges at par with that of other employees, and to cut short all these matters leaning toward engaging the private security services on contract or outsourcing basis. This may in most of the cases are going unchecked and leading to corrupt practices at all levels.
It may be that the contractor or outsourcing agencies show on record such and such number of security personnel but actually engage only one third or even less staff and the amounts they such receive shall be shared with the company’s head and others connected. They do not even maintain proper record about their provident fund account or the employee’s state insurance or health cards, attendance registers, muster rolls, duty registers, etc.
If any of the employee make hue and cry on his PF returns and repayments, the same shall be arranged on matching/fictitious names. It was also brought that the same guards are rotated in shifts at two or three different companies or organizations by showing different names and other ranks.
It was told that if the company’s dealers are still greedy, they may even create some non exiting contractors or the outsourcing agencies, make out some other records to show that the security guards were deployed in their organization for some period and get their payments passed and en cashed. In such cases, they informed that there shall be no contract agreements, quotations, no news paper quotes, but just utilize their powers and authority to the maximum limitation of amounts and manage the Boss with pleasant matters.
If the company’s interests run through in organizing their man power through some fictions/fictitious contractor and/or outsourcing agencies, they select interested parties who make out all the formalities on some names, which may be existing one, or non existing persons or companies, and formulate their signatures as of the outsourcing agency/contractor showing some fictitious company names with some addresses, including their house address as their working office/headquarters.
Herein, it was also informed that the organizational heads, at some times/places are leaning toward white collar criminality-corrupt practices through wicked minded contractors or the outsourcing agencies for their wrongful gain. They found to be adopting various dubious methods only for material or personal gain.
I have seen some advertisement given by Wipro for establishing their own security personnel, but it is not whether they succeeded or not.

When the Government run Home Guard’s administration and Management can just make out its corrupt practices so easily even for years together with or with out clandestine activates of near and the dear higher ups, and when the matter has leaked through Press and Media, the DGP level authority have accepted such illegal acts/activities., then one can imagine the fate of the private security system and its services. The Police have also admitted that there may be five times more in the strength of the actual Police in the State of Andhra Pradesh. They were silent about the Private Security Agencies (Regulation) Act, 2005 or about the adaptation of its Rules to apply to them in the State.

State, and the Tramways Bill became an Act in due course, and now the Metro Railways System is found to be based for Metro Railways; If Government wants, every thing shall be made easy. Let there be some consciences amongst the Governmental bodies and the Jan Lokpal Bill aspirants like Mr. Hazare, make the Draft Bill public through Media/press and on line, take the views of the citizens and put forward the same in the Parliament for Discussion.

FEATURE FOR FUTURE; DISCARD NONE IN LIFE:
The one who has the power of realization is the one who can bring transformation.
When something goes wrong we immediately begin to look for excuses, or explanations, why that mistake happened. This finishes our power of realization and we will not be able to recognize our own mistake. Then we will not be able to work at improving ourselves and we will not be able to bring any transformation.
Instead of looking for excuses for what all happened, we need to take the opportunity to check within ourselves and see our own mistake(s). When we recognize our mistake, however small it may be, we will be able to work on it. Only when we are able to realize our own mistake, will we be able to bring about transformation in ourselves.
(A): Did YOU feel INSULTED:
• At one place or the other, or on some occasions you might have been insulted or you have felt in yourself that you have been insulted, but for the reasons not exposed, you kept quite or digested the insult, but, still, you are not happy about it- the happening- the incident and you are unable to forgive or forget about the person(s), and so on:
• The INSULT, the words, is only a vibration in the air, just touching to your heart, the heart-breaking words; it is nothing but actually feeling a physical pain in the region of the heart. It occurs only when we does not compromise with the words spoken against or toward us, this is insult only when our discrimination has in fact failed us to understand in retrospective or prospective or when our mind thoughts stopped Yoga and meditation aspects:
• When we feel insulted and then utilize the Sadhana and retire into seclusion for a while and reflect our Guru-the soul and retrieve the matters in all the ways-- that;
• He/ or they insulted only my body, mind and little self, I did not loose any self respect at all, who are they to talk about me, I am not that;
• He can not insult my real self, the soul, because he himself is my own self; I shall make best use of it to analyze it;
• By insulting my little self, he is really helping me in dissociating with it;
• His insult has enabled me to come face to face with my own egoism, my interaction with my soul, God has given me an opportunity to crush it once for all;
• The only new point of version, now I discovered is—he has pointed out openly to me what he considers/considered as a defect in me; he has given me an opportunity to analyze the same for myself;
• O’ God, I am always thankful to him:
• Now, I do not get irritated and I shall not get angry and console my self and my soul:
(B): SUCCESS at our door step:
• Success never goes or runs away for you, unless you move, run away from it;
• To have success in your life- always ask questions for your self, discriminate between the good, the bad and the worst;
• Set goals, be a team leader and the best of all learn to be a team player first;
• Always try to listen to directions, follow through on the assignments, then success follows you;
• Have faith in the working system. Faith grows only when you use it;
• Be courageous and no looking back, it takes you to your goals and you reach the destiny;
• Courage makes you to stand up and speak boldly and with out fear, as fear is a contagious disease;
• Courage and fearlessness, both take you to sit down with calmness, steady mind and listen, and then act;

Industrial security system and intelligence services/adaptation:
In any industry or organization, security system and intelligence deployment is found be most neglected system and poorly employed with meager perks and fully depending on one or the other unorganized security Forces or Agencies who have not even registered their names in accordance with “The Private Security agencies (Regulation) Act, 2005”, but they form as a part of big establishments with sophisticated security systems and well established and trained personnel. They may be from ex-army, police, CPOs (Central Police Organizations), and the like but, it may and should have been a concern of a well organized organization to check up their registration and dealings as per the guide lines laid in the above Act.
The present system of working in any industry by any professional or for that reason any personnel is to get more and more perks and they are in fact found to be least bothered or interested to find out the ways and means to apply their awareness and mind to bring growth to the organization by which they are employed.
What ever their level of the management cadre, they first think of their purse and take home salary and other ways and means to come closer to the boss and as to how to get higher and higher positions or promotions.
For this type, they tend to express their work capabilities and workmanship only to that extent and till such time they get higher perks and upgraded with higher position. Their aim is found to be to work with such and such organization/s for such period say around 4-5 years and get themselves recognized or organize their know how on their professional matters of interest and look for the right time to jump over to any other organization for extra perks and elevation which may include, a chance to serve in other countries and so on.
At this point of juncture itself the organizations security and inside story is becoming as the target and how much of the matters are discussed out side the office hours as gossip is not taken care of by the management or its managers. They feel that it is a matter of routine in nature. That is all. There the actual story of intelligence matters are leaked out or the security aspect, management weakness, exposure are coining out. May the information talked about is of any importance or not, the same is openly discussed, including that of the boss/heads of the departments, other weakness, their family history, and the people’s movements. The security personnel and their subordinate’s words who have been employed are not taken into confidence by the management, or the board of directors, as their presence and suggestions or the advice on security aspects, which include the intelligence gathered on the industry’s physical and or on personnel working patterns and so on… But they are asked not to open up their minds unless they ask to do so, and even if they ventilate their news about some personnel, it was just ignored and at times, the person was asked to be careful as he is being watched. There may be some differential equations between the working system and security deployment between the Central/State Governmental Organizations and the private/or the public sector organizations. But in most of the systems, the internal, physical security of men and materials and that of the organization’s safety and security is a matter of concern. In these days of competitive intelligence hangovers and economic or industrial bypassing and awaiting a chance for take-over, the security systems and services are found to be playing a vital role under ground even with out the knowledge of the management and they are not leak proof.
Insiders or to that matter, the family members, are the most targeted persons by the opponents, who are outwardly and in open terms seems to be the best coordinators, or the partners in all matters. Industrial or education tours, visits by important persons accompanied by un known persons at specific intervals is the most watch dog situation for an industry who have not adopted to utilize the sophisticated intelligence trained security personnel. Physical security of men, material, and that of the industry is very much important, but it is also very much essential to get good intelligence officers, whose integrity shall be tested by reputation and not by the medals, ranks, status, position, and other rewards. The overt and the covert acts of the insiders and also the outsiders-visiting the organizations on one or the pretext or for the expansion, business deals, research scholars, celebrities, and the like are the soft persons through whom the matters are leaked out. This type of intelligence system working is not for material gain, but aimed to find out the ways and means to get the loop holes to be used in future course or when time permits and bounce upon for its merger, closure, etc. Even at these junctures, the security services, and the personnel utilized are of no use to the organization, as they are useful for nothing and not meant or trained for such activities. This is at times used as competitive intelligence network through individuals or group of highly placed persons, against whom the lower or middle management security personnel have no approach to them. That is the weakness of the organization, which had no fore thought on such developments. Gathering information/intelligence is an Art- a systemized way of approach of the weak minded or the persons on some need-or who are can be pinned down for the three Ws-wealth, wine and women or of such natured Art cannot be equated with any matter of procedural practices, which can be just trained and adopted by specialized personnel alone, who are being utilized by the other organizations, even who/they might of in friendly nature, including partners?
No organization, to my knowledge and belief is found to have specially employed any such security system personnel who are being utilized for collection of intelligence, assimilation or dissemination on matters of security system of its organizational set up so far. These include systemized installation and monitoring of the equipments and so on.
In intelligence gathering on what ever subject or matter, there can be no legal or illegal means which are designed to be adopted or not to be adopted. The matters depend on the organizational set up of standards, its status, economic, and on competitiveness over national or international systems. All the matters depend upon the situation and the person on whom they are going to be taped or tapped.
it is not to be misunderstood as trapped, before tapping, they find out all types of information, weakness, rigidity, and the religious background, disgruntled or dissatisfied personnel, susceptible to or not, but they sanitize the matters and adopt suitable forms to suit to the situation of adoptability, etc.
Espionage, sabotage, other types of criminal activities shall not be clubbed with the security and intelligence working as they are to be dealt separately and independently like counter intelligence, surveillance, counter espionage, cyber crimes, white collar crimes, etc shall have to be dealt separately even though they may overlap or inter related in terms and working aspect.
Economic imbalance, auditors reports, taxes, customs, tenders, in fights for power and authority, trade union activities, for and/or against the management, logistics--adjustments, or theft of materials, machinery failures, present trends of contract/outsourcing systems-- of personnel, drivers, cabs, are some of the fields where they might be interest and a tool for targeting its down fall, or surrender to others, etc.
In this aspect one has no say on the white collar criminals of the organization’s-insiders who adopt, or opt for wrongful gain, and having become easy to contributory or compromiser’s formulae with others and such person’s identity and exposure may become a problematic issue which may ultimately reflect on its working aspect itself.
This may lead to lot of panic in the heads of the departments, chair-person and the CMD/or MDs and weeding out such personnel is a gigantic task with out getting the matter leaked out.
It was brought that most of the companies now a days without employing their own security personnel, may lead to have rights and privileges at par with that of other employees, and to cut short all these matters leaning toward engaging the security services on contract or outsourcing basis.
Herein, it was also informed that the organizational heads are leaning toward white collar criminality through wicked minded contractors or the outsourcing agencies for their wrongful gain. They found to be adopting various dubious methods.
The contractor or outsourcing agencies show on record such and such number of security personnel but actually engage only one third or even less staff and the amounts they such receive shall be shared with the company’s head and others connected. They do not even maintain proper record about their provident fund account or the employee’s state insurance or health cards.
If any of the employee make hue and cry on his PF returns and repayments organizations by showing different names.
It was told that if the company’s dealers are still greedy, they may even create some non exiting contractors or the outsourcing agencies, make out some other records to show that the security guards were deployed in their organization for some period and get their payments passed and en cashed. In such cases, they informed that there shall be contract agreements, quotations, no news paper quotes.
If the company’s interests run through in organizing their interests through some fictions outsourcing agencies, they select interested parties who make out all the formalities on some names, which might have been existing, or non existing persons or companies, and formulate their signatures as of the outsourcing agency., the same shall be arranged on vicious names. It was also brought that the same guards are rotated in shifts at two or three different companies or
There was a news item published in the Hindu daily news paper dated 13th Jan, 2011, Hyderabad edition, at page 5 about the Hyderabad City Police to regulate private security system by making an enactment to control and to have a check on private security Forces/Services, which may be ‘five times the police force’ strength in the State. It may not be out of place to doubt as to whether the Police have any official record with full details of each and every such Agencies now running even over and above the Police/Central Police Organizations in the State and also in the Private and Public Sectors which shall include the Railways, the Educational Institutions and the like. .
In this connection, may I take opportunity once again to state that there exist already a Law --“The Private Security agencies (Regulation) Act, 2005”, on the matter and that in my considered opinion , the State Government has to take appropriate action to implement the same in stricto sense. In this Act, there are several laid down Rules and regulations about the recruitment, training, registration of the Firms/Companies dealing with the Private Security Systems.
In the present context of safety and security which shall, also include the Intelligence System of the Organization, what so ever, for which the Government or the so called Private Security Forces deployed or employed. Keeping in view of infiltrations and the sort, it is very much essential to have a proper and strict Regulatory Body to control and have command on the ‘five times the police force’ strength in the State.

(HONOURABLE PRESIDENT OF INDIA PRESENTS PRESIDENTIAL COLOURS TO RAILWAY PROTECTION FORCE)-(“INDIAN RAILWAYS”- MONTHLY MAGAZINE-JULY-2006)
In a colorful, solemn and inspiring parade ceremony on 22nd May, 2006 Railway Protection Force (RPF) was presented with the Presidential Colours by the Hon’ble President of India, Dr.A.P.J. Abdul Kalam. The function was attended by Shri Lalu Prasad, Minister of Railways, shri R.Velu and Shri Naranbhai Rathwa, Ministers of State for Railways, Shri J.P. Batra, Chairman, Railway Board, Shri. A.K. Suri, DG/RPF and host of other dignitaries. The glittering function was organized in the RPSF premises in Dayabasti, Delhi. The Hon’ble President during his address greeted the Commanding Officers and all ranks of the RPF on the auspicious occasion.
The Hon’ble President in his speech emphasized on the need for use of information and communication technology in removing the jurisdictional anomalies arising between place of occurrence and place of reporting of crime by passengers. In his opinion the technologies, should provide a new dimension for policing, surveillance and dealing with criminal and maintaining law and order in the trains.
He also reiterated the need to remove the division of responsibility between GRP-Government Railway Police and the RPF-Railway Protection Force and empowering the RPF with legal powers to tackle all cognizable offences under the Indian Penal Code and all special acts so that there is a single point of responsibility for tackling crimes against railway passengers.
Dr. Kalam made the following suggestions to RPF to make rail journey safe and secure to the twelve million people including tourists who are making use of the rail services every day.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS:
An analysis should be conducted about the frequency and the type of crime occurring against Railway passengers in different parts of the country. Based on this analysis special strategy should be devised for combating crimes in areas where its frequency and intensity is very high for ensuring safe travel for passengers in the region.
Also, all the RPF units should be networked in the country so that rapid mobilization of additional resources can be done in difficult areas. The Indian Railway name for the service will further be enhanced by incorporating the following addition missions for Railways-RPF:
• A child below the age of ten or a senior citizen should be able to travel from Kanyakumari to Dispur (Assam) safely like a child or senior citizen is able to travel from Atlanta to Madurai by air without an escort.
• A young lady should be able to travel safely without a companion from Mumbai to Patna and reach home safely.
• All the passengers traveling in the trains should feel confident that their belongings are safe and that they do not have to spend sleepless nights worrying about the loss of their luggage.
• The international; tourists should be able to feel that train travel in India is passenger friendly, safe and secure.
Railway Protection Force should aim for realization of such a level of safety by the year 2010.

THE MISSING DIMENSIONS ON SECURITY AND SAFETY OF PASSENGERS-A POOINT OF VIEW-(“INDIAN RAILWAYS”- MONTHLY MAGAZINE-JUNE-2007- )
Honorable President of India Dr.A.P.J. Abdul Kalam has presented the Presidential Colours to the Railway protection Force on 22nd May, 2006 with certain observations and suggestions to the RPF to make rail journey safer and secure to the 12 million people including the tourists who are making use of the rail services every day.
The President reiterated:
(1) the need to remove the division of responsibility between the Government Railway Police(GRP) and Railway Protection Force(RPF);
(2) for empowering the RPF with legal powers to tackle all cognizable offences under the Indian Penal Code(IPC) and Special Acts so that there is a single point of responsibility for tackling crimes against railway passengers.
Even three decades earlier and thereafter also there were lot of dialogue and paper work on the matter. Referring to the policing and police service in the Indian Railways and the role of the RPF, its constraints and improvement, in the 1976, Shri. P.S. Ram Mohan Rio, IPS, DGP (Retd) and former Governor of the Tamil Nadu, when he worked as DIG-cum-Chief Security Commissioner, RPF, South Central Railway had observed that “the tendency to change the RPF with policing duties on the railways is on the increase, policing on the railways in regard to both maintenance or order and prevention, detection of crime relating to the person and to the passenger should be the exclusive concern of the GRP controlled by the state Governments.
Any scheme will not only result in multiplicity of agencies, frequent overlapping of responsibilities and efforts, but what is more important will generate needless frictions between the State Police Forces on the one side and the other agencies(RPF) entrusted with similar duties on the other. There is an urgent need to have another look at the pattern of organization the RPF and bring about suitable modification to enable it (RPF) to meet at least its basic tasks”.
In May, 1985 I have submitted an Article on the subject matter for publication in the RPF Journal etc., for which my Superior Officers might have thought as not worthy to be known by others and I think, filed the same.
Without going in detail about the organizational set up of the RPF, it is suffice here to mention that in terms of ‘ The Railway Protection Force Act, 1957’, it is constituted and maintained by the Central Government ( the Ministry of Railways and not by the Home Ministry) for better protection and security of the railway property. The act has been further amended in 1985 thereby the RPF has been equated as ‘Armed Force of the Union ‘.
In additions to the railway property, enhanced functions, powers and responsibilities about the safety and security of the passengers, their belongings, and passenger area were vested on the shoulders of the RPF by another amendment to the Act in the 2003 without empowering the RPF directly and independently to deal the offences pertaining to and connected therewith which eventually comes under the purview of the IPC. In short, all such cases detected or apprehended by the RPF have to be handed over to the GRP for further legal action like registration of the case, investigation and prosecution.
I would like to mention as to how the GRP and RPF are working on the railway system by quoting a sentence, “Nothing can be farther from the truth. In essence while the soil is ruined on the one hand by excessive chemicals the input ratio on the farm increases every season. The farmer is caught in a vicious cycle”—‘Slow Death: SURYA, March, 1989’.
Here, I equate soil as the RPF, excessive chemicals as the amendments to the Acts without Police powers to RPF and retaining the GRP as it was, the farm is the Railways, and farmer is the passenger.
The RPF is empowered by Law to deal with offences falling under the definition of ‘railway property’ under the Railway Property (Unlawful Possession) Act, 1966. There was amendment to the long title of the RPF Act, 1957 in the year 2003, wherein with out changing the meaning of ‘railway property’, the title has been enlarged and substituted to include passenger area and passengers; but the definition of railway property stands as it was in the year 1957, i.e.” railway property includes any goods, money or valuable security, or animal, belonging to, or in the charge or possession of, a railway administration.”.
So, to say, that the passengers and their belongings even though they come or remain within the railway /passenger area does not belong to or in the charge or in possession of a railway administration.
This fact itself shall bar the RPF from taking any action under Law to deal any offences pertaining to the above and hence invariably under all probabilities, all such cases have to be handed over to the GRP for further legal action.
Thus, the friction and imbalance between the RPF and the GRP working stood as it was earlier even after amendments to certain Acts without touching the base element of the legal powers to RPF on the offences falling under the IPC or allied Acts.
It is more and more very clear without any ambiguity that as per the statement of objects and reasons of the RPF Act, the legislation has designed to bring about a radical change in the functioning of the department, by reorganizing it, to provide in times of need, suitable assistance to the Railway Police who are charged mainly with the responsibility for overall maintenance of law and order in railway premises.
Ironically it can be seen that ’ The Police( Incitement to Disaffection) Act, 1922 ‘ has been made applicable to the RPF by virtue of its inclusion in the RPF Act making it to the subject of the Police Force only to the extent of said Act and not otherwise.
Again some other Acts like ‘ The Payment of wages Act, 1936 ‘, ‘ The Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 ‘, ‘ The Factories Act,1948 ‘ or any other Law corresponding thereto shall not be applicable to the RPF. It is very precisely added by the Statutes to exclude the RPF as they are working on the Railways system which is an industry and for some extent the RPF personnel were regarded as Railway servants only to deal some offences under the Railways Act.
Even though here were amendments to the Rules (in the years 1988, 1999, 2001), pertaining to the Railway Notices of/and inquiries into accidents Rules, Statutory Investigation into Railway Accidents Rules, the name of the RPF has not been incorporated at any corner of the said Rules for its participation or association in any manner in any such inquiries or as one of the member in the joint enquiries. Here again the GRP alone has been included and entrusted by Law to deal such matters and not the RPF. However, in all such matters RPF officers associate in all respects, submit their reports, etc.
In spite of all such official exclusion by way of Rules and the Law, as per local orders, if there were any lapses on the part of the RPF personnel to the extent of and up to the rank of Inspectors, they shall be taken up departmentally in regard to their duties etc., connected to the railway accidents and untoward incidents, on its reports/enquiries into such incidents.
By ‘The Police Act,1949 ‘, the Central Government has constituted a police force for general police-district embracing two or more Union Territories and for the establishment of a Police Force therefore. The same procedure can be adopted to enforce a single Police Force on the Indian Railways.
It is pertinent to spell out that there can be some consensus between the State Governments and the Central Government either to merge the RPF and the GRP as one Uniformed Force only to deal the offences on the Railway system or to find out ways and means to include the RPF, now may be one of Central Para Military Forces (CPMF), and now to be brought at par and as one of the Police Force like that of the other Central Police Organizations ( BSF, CISF, CRPF, ITBP, Coast Guard, etc ) even by amending ‘ The Police Act,1888’ or ‘ The Police Act,1861’.
The Central Government can also make a separate Act like ‘ The Police Act, 1949 ‘, thereby including the RPF befitting as a Police Force to deal cases exclusively on Railways. The Central Government can also constitute a separate or special railway districts embracing parts of two or more States and Union Territories, and extend it to every such part of the said district the powers and jurisdiction of a Police Force as belonging to a State to be specified in the Notification. By this, the RPF can also be vested with the powers and functions of the Police Force on Railway’s System.

MOTHER- OLD AGE – A BLESSING OR A DOOM-A POINT OF VIEW.
( I am writing this ARTICLE not aiming about any person(s), but from the feelings expressed by several intellectuals, old aged senior citizens with whom I happened to converse and from whom I could gather the information about their inner hearts. The annotations, captions at some places used, does not necessarily be construed or to be applied to my (our) family alone; it is expressed to reflect and praise the MOTHERS who happen to face such agony, etc.)
There is a saying--" Those who knows the mother, knows the world”.
This caption might be true. But, ironically, he who does not care for the mother at least at the old age when she really require and expects actual help and assistance from his son…..what to call him…How to define him and in which language…
Just think and imagine the feelings of old aged persons of and above the age group of 50-60 years, who happens to live separately or away from their son(s).and of course the daughters...
This may happen on various accounts like:
• By virtue of their son living on account of job in some other state or country;
• Or in the course of living away from them though staying in the same city but living on account of their jobs, children’s education, or to be nearer to the place of working;
• may be in the course of love marriages; and
• May be on one or other account or pretext.
In general, it is found that they are not in a position to talk their parents-in particular with his mother; they find no time to visit to the mother’s house, if they stay in the same city, even during holidays, festivals or other festivities, at least to say hello, or to spend a little time to have consonance their aged parents/ to the mother.
Their offerings of excuses include heavy and unbearable job work, over time, late sittings at job work, or that they are not in a position to spare time to come from their place of residence, or other wise engaged, preoccupied on some other work.
It may heartening to hear from others that the so called son and his family members were seen at the restaurants, hotels, or at cinema halls, market places, or at the busy malls etc. The comments of the neighborhood, the relations, and of the friends at this old age found to be unbearable to them. The mother, or of course, the father, make out all sorts of excuses and explanations by supporting their son’s absence. But, the mental agony of the parents, their untold feelings, sleepless nights are and cannot be brought out through pen. Their swallowing of the expressions to cover up their inner feelings, the Atmaxobha and eyes always searching for their son and to listen to him are all found be a like their night vision.
The enormous money they possess, the relations they had, the friends, the authority, the power and the status they had, have found to be not coming to their rescue in replacing the sons’ presence with them. The old age homes, other’s counseling’s, etc, will they be of any help to them from making them to feel happy or to come out of their depressions, which I found that no person can recognize, replace , establish or detect.
Sadhana for Elation and Elevation is found to be the only solution for the mothers who are neglected and made alone to live by their sons. No smothering words can help in distracting their eyes eagerly looking at the gate side, ears wanting to hear his voice of affection and love,
But, but, but… what. ----what the sin she might have committed to loose all this love and affection from the son? What to write and how to console and convince her about the present position of her son, and his re-thinking of inbuilt imaginations and thoughts; redefining the works, words to suit to his conveniences. These revelations may be with a view to satisfy his wife alone at his cost of life, only to make her believe that he is taking full care, love and affection towards her/his wife. Or his not visiting his mother may also be to make her/his wife believe that he does not care his mother, father , other relations, and that he tries to make her believe that her/his wife’s versions as true and beyond doubt. How to change his mind set up and about misconceptions toward the divine mother.
Many of the people advocate the golden means saying that self effort and fate are like the two wheels of a chariot or are like a pair of scissors.
Whenever defeat stares us in the face, we try to console ourselves by ascribing the failure to our ‘stars’, to predestination or to the result of our deeds in the past lives.
Whatever may be their philosophical connotation, there can be no denying the fact that we ourselves must strive to elevate our lives.
We always adjust to the life’s spring and actions. We must bravely march forward. We must work with a sense of dedication with immense faith in our self-effort.
There is a saying to the effect that up to the sixth step it is human Endeavour and the seventh is divine favour. Has anyone in the world ever risen in life without sustained hard work backed by assiduousness and enthusiasm?
Can we ever be successful in any field of life if we idle away our life waiting for fate or fortune? Such a mentality will convert the man into a coward and a slave to sluggishness.
People commit many mistakes due to their weakness and then put the blame on the stars, fate and luck. It is said that a man who slipped carelessly and fell down blamed the fate and the ground for his fall.
Try to read with patience, in between the lines and not with severance or in hasty.
Be realistic to understand the situations, the consequences and the sequences that might have erupted from the beginning to the point of separation of lives- of the mother and the son. Just pity the mother, the son also, and for the matters encountered in her life and the dreams about and on the expectations of him she had. Imagine the stamina and the strength she had to sustain the draw backs, the push backs in her life to bring her son to the present position. The kicks of her son on the chest received during the early age as a kid and the joy she might have felt at that age.
And now when her son grew with maturity, in mind and developed his own thought revelations and the actions with self decision making to select and marry his life partner, reside separately and away from the mother, what explanations can any one put before her.
Her reconciliations from his child hood, she, as mother, might have pondered with joy andJubilations for the first actions of the son, receiving kicks on her chest, and now for the second actions. Who can imagine her feelings and rethinking of the past which are entirely different to her expectations?
She might have become a soft target to her belief or he might have become simpleton? He was rather a hot stuff with sanguine this affair…? Is he became sandpaper or a sandwich in his life and with the life of his mother in the name and style of living separately on one or the other pretext with his family?
Is it due to the love and over helmed affection and sympathy towards his family? Or he has adapted to suit to his convenience to visit the mother and satisfy his other loved ones.
With all the above regurgitates and surmises, still I have a belief that he is a person with sanity and still did not loose love and affection toward his mother, then why and how the situations can be changed and what is the solution to resolve the matter. I have no answer, except to rely on the God.
Even if we concede that there is fate that hinders us from reaching our chosen goals, still we can overcome the fate through our diligence and also by awakening our spiritual strength. Had there been an omnipotent fate, concepts lie fair and foul, virtues and vices, spiritual strength would have been unheard of.
Human beings are not a mere sod of earth or a log of dead wood. No one can ever prosper in life if they harbours the feeling that they are not responsible for their actions, that it is fate which makes them behave as they does and that they are pushed and pulled helplessly by fate.
He who blindly follows the invisible fate is propelled by extreme ignorance which cannot but precipitates his downfall.
I firmly believe that only he who surrenders himself at God’s feet and prays to God whole-heartedly can regard himself as a machine and God as the driving force. Especially noteworthy is the fact that such an individual can do no wrong and can do no harm to others. This great man will be an embodiment of selflessness always aspiring for the weal and welfare of all in the world.
I boldly and with pride ascribe these connotations to the mother, who might have faced and or facing the wrath and the sufferings of the life, that too without even whispering to others.
But, now, at this age, when she requires a helping hand and counseling – the same is missing from her son. Fortune favours the deserving…: Patience pays….But. At what stage?, will it be of any help to her when she can not be in a position to relish, realize, and understand the same, except staring at him and dump founded by the actions of his son.
The GOD - the almighty only shall help the Mother and resolve, if He can.

The one who has the power of realization is the one who can bring transformation.
When something goes wrong we immediately begin to look for excuses, or
explanations, why that mistake happened. This finishes our power of realization
and we will not be able to recognize our own mistake. Then we will not be able
to work at improving ourselves and we will not be able to bring any transformation.
Instead of looking for excuses for what all happened, we need to take the opportunity
to check within ourselves and see our own mistake(s). When we recognize our mistake,
however small it may be, we will be able to work on it. Only when we are able to realize
our own mistake, will/shall we be able to bring about transformation in ourselves.
why there shall be paper correspondence/letters to some one to explain about his own
integrity and honesty; let any one talk any thing; we are in a democratic country, every
person shall be awaiting for chance to condemn/criticize/and or make out sarcastic
remarks only to hurt you and your path.. there by you get demoralized to go further,
that is all they achieved their target: The Lokpal Bill also takes several years to come
for discussion as like that of Women’s Bill; their- Political parties- if interested,
then only any thing can be done with out any lapse of time;
•
Corruption has its own ways and means which in turn inter linked and connected
to politics of the nations,corrupt practices and intelligence inside and outside
the country like out IB?SIB?RAW/DRI...Getting nod and sanction for making
a Bill first to be introduced and then to become as an Act.. all procedures and
formalities depend on the political supports like the woman's bill which is still
pending...now where we stand is like selling the scrap as is where is condition...
whether you call it drat lokpal bill or amendment to Prevention of corruption Act..
. it takes its own time and course...say several years to go to become an Act.. see
the case of Hyderabad Metro Railways-first the Draft Bill was to be taken up by
the Centre but eventually the State taken up and drafted tramway bill only for
the HMR, fully owned and being organised and constructed by the State and not
by the Centre through AP Tramways Act, then where we stand in Law,
the Constitution,and all other Provisions,schedules and what not... we are /
have to just wait and see like the country has seen Jythohiba Phule as Mahatma
and after 100 years another Mahatma-Gandhi- came in to get freedom for India..
We got lot of patience and getting along and wait and see ....attitude...

Seshavikrala
Sri. S.K. Ghosh, IPS, in his book’ The Light of Other Days’,
said ”... I can say quite candidly, while majority of police
officers want to be efficient and honest, and if there is an honest politician
in charge, there will be an honest Police Force. It is just that simple...”Sri.
D. N. Gautam, IPS, in his book ‘What is wrong with Indian Police’, expressed
the gospel truth in other words,”…The Indian Police have a typical
characteristic of being strong towards the weak and weak towards the
strong…’The observations made by Mr. P. Chidambaram, Union Minster while
inaugurating the second annual vigilance conference, at Chennai are worth found
to be quoted..’ the virus of corruption appeared to envelop the whole fabric of
society and when some people tended to be corrupt, even the honest people
became suspect…” (Indian Express- Daily News Paper- Hyderabad
Edition, dated 22-3-1988).It is thus surmised that the Police identification
and working varies with the changing political rulers and that the values by
segregating themselves from the society is also never the less polluting the
police –public relationship...The cordial principle of three ’Ds’—Duty,
Devotion and Discipline’ among the police personnel is very often lost sight
of.

Annaji ! Please keep marching with determination. Indians, as a nation,
is with you for the just cause you have forged before the ruling government.
• There is a saying--" Those who knows the mother, knows the world”.
This caption might be true. Here, your mother is your inner mind and
the conscience .But, in the case of white collar crimes or corrupt practices
or accepting money from what ever may be the source of working by
killing or sidelining the consciousness, and the cosine with corrugated
mind lean toward compromise for personal gain by all means, that is all,
you are doomed and swing into corrupt practices;
Always try to uplift the right matters and respect them with
least nods or so at the right time for prosperity without fear
and favour; like wise one shall not focus on personal gains
and/or material gain interests in weight but for prospective
matters that the Organization shall come up like the Honest
of all and above the sky. Instead of pin pointing and trying
to find fault with other’s views and vision on any matter if
expressed, or trying to adopt ways and methods by trying or
clouding the Intelligence reports concerning to the men and
materials or by fully depending on the others working capabilities,
try always to find out factual matters.
Corruption/White Collar Crimes/Black Money are all the
decorative matters of the personnel/personalities with
paraphernalia who strive hard by all means to get their
choice of money/ position to grab, to the extent possible to make
out the black money in to white money and vice versa, the vicious
circle continues to be adopted as long as they shall have the power,
Position, status, cadre and what not. The word greed and no
greed has no meaning when once joined hands with the
corrupt practices; they shall bow down to all types humiliations,
insults, and what not? There may be some or the other type
of explanations and excuses to over come the blame and their
joining hands with such persons, but the aim and object shall
be to get the money or money valued materials and or matters
for them. The system goes on.
• ONE SHALL ACT WITH FEARLESSNESS AND NOT WITH FEAR:*
SWAMI VIVEKANANDA*--"The earth is enjoyed by heroes-
this is the unfailing truth; be a Hero. Always say' I have no fear'.
Tell this to everybody--'Have no fear; fear is death, fear is sin,
fear is hell, fear is unrighteousness, fear is wrong life.
All the negative thoughts and ideas that are in this world have
proceeded from this evil spirit of fear...” Hence, act and make
others to act with fearlessness, God shall see that the wicked,
the vice, and the corrupt minded persons to perish once for all.
Hence be Brave....Do not engulf yourself in vicious circle at any cost...
let you be poor but be honest, sincere and with duty mindedness
and exhibit your integrity not for appreciation, rewards or medals.
To the point always and all the time be honest to the work,
to the words and action....Your reward shall be your Honesty,
you may be requiring some money to clear of the loans,
to run the family, or children’s education and what not,
but still be honest; check and discuss with you inner mind ;
it shall tell how dishonest you are and your wife nor your
children does not share your sin, ill gotten money, they just enjoy
as long as they can. Just see around all others may wish you but
heart and heart they hate you and talk about your corrupt practices,
may be in your absence. Hence do not let your life go in that line…
INNOVATION; MBA__ADMINISTRATION AND MANGEMENT:
ON SAFETY AND SECURITY OF PERSONS/Personnel
AND THEIR BELONGINGS;
INCLUSION AS A SUBJET MATTER
IN THE MBA MAIN STREAM OF STUDIES-
ARTICLE (Part: 1): Industrial security system and Intelligence Services: safety and security of the personnel-physical and personal through administrative and management system:
In so far as the Human Body is concerned, whether it is of the male, female, child, it has its own Values and Cultures, safety and security in the society; it is now well accepted formulae that the Medical science and Technology has specifically and in particular recognized its value and merits. They have advance their steps in Human Body utilization through S&T for obtaining, taking the entire/part of the body’s parts, in whole or in loose parts, at a particular required time or from time to time as and when required by them.
The Human Body, alive or dead, as required by the medical professionals, make use the same which include blood, tissues, platelets, and other parts like the kidneys, limbs, etc or other contents whether with the knowledge of the person or relatives, known persons…This type of utilization of Human Body parts or blood, tissues, etc, might have become a boon for some one (owners of the body) but in fact has found to have become a doom to others; and for some others, who goes for adaptation of illegal means a business tycoon. It has found to have become just like that of a sausage.
At times, news appeared goes to show that the matter of extraction of the human body’s parts etc goes savagely, money’s worth splices by the vested interests or by splinter groups. Some say that even the umbilical cord is also useful in medical science and technology system during grafting, transplantation, anatomy, autopsy, therapeutics, experimental research and the like.
Now it has become a patent like thing-‘Human Body’ as property, living or dead for most of the matters.
Like in the medical terminology the human body is most useful on many matters, but if once it is commercialized for a price in the market in future like any other commodity, where shall we stand? But for Gods sake, one shall not Value the Body or its parts, living or dead, with some ’Price’ or its cause to be equated with its effects; with growing and unabated illegal trends in Human Body extraction activities as seen in news papers and cinemas on various reasons, it is comprehending/felt that old saying about the Property concept is also being applied to Human Body and that of slavery system is found to be recycling, if not now, but in future if one shall ignore all the illegal, corrupt practices, just by ignoring medical ethics and mayhem with all precondition’s and records, slogan Mayday comes in.
No one is found to be thinking of the future on these issues and the issue concerning to the safety and physical security of persons while they work for an organization or while they in a recognized Arena, like the train platforms, while traveling in a train, on road; security system has become on no mans land, either the State nor the Centre takes its full pledged responsibility and liability to safe guard the interests of the rail passengers while on platform or in a train; then how about their personal belongings being carried with them. It is opined that on this aspect industrialist, intellectuals, the VIPs/VVIPS, Indian Railways for its rail passenger, the States/Central government, MBAs, Bureaucrats and the like might have not taken serious view or might be ‘hare-brained’.
Let there be a Law/Act to make one single and uniformed Police Force( now-two-GRP-State’s governments & RPF-Centre) over the Indian Railways to deal with all the Law & Order and crime matters duly making the Force to work under one command, one Competent Authority as aspired in 2006 by the (Former) Honorable President of India while presenting Colours to the RPF.
Just observe the seminars, conferences, meetings and a lot on international level or with in India, or organized by the departments, Ministries etc, there shall be no representative from the Security /force and if present, he shall be figure head, with out comments on security aspect, etc. If any security related question arises, they just pass it on to the Police/or the person present to look into it and that is all, the matter is treated as closed.
Most of the Industries, Organizations, Companies, Banks, Public/Private sectors, Governmental Bodies, utilizes the services of Private Security Services through Contract/outsourcing system, a few utilize the services of the CISF, and the Indian Railways in addition to the RPF, GRP, also utilize Private Security services at some selected Arena.
It is opined that most of the MBAs, Bureaucratic, including the PSOs, Banks, Indian Railways, have at any time made any serious debate on this type of vital issues in their top level conferences, seminars , any person raised the issues concerning the Act on Private Security Agencies prevailing in India, and its utilization, and or about the personal/physical safety and security of the persons working for their industry or for that reason about the rail passengers in and around their premises and in trains; the safety aspect to them found to about the fire safety, mechanical/equipment safety etc.
Leave alone on this issues, whether any State Government’s Police System verified and checked any of the Private Security Agencies in the real context of the applicability of the Act-‘The Private Security Agencies (regulation)Act, 2005, and its Rules; whether any State Government made out /adopted these Rules to suit to them, are some of opinions/questions raised during some discussions.
Whether any Organization, industry etc. while engaging one or the other Private Security personnel to work in their establishment verified the Agencies’ records of its management details, record of security guards, supervisors, customers incoming and outgoing ,vehicles, duty roster, photo IDs, its verification, finger prints, license of the Security Agencies engaged by them issued by the State Government/Police, training certificate of security guards issued by the Licensed Training Agency/Police, Character and Antecedent Certificate issued by the State Police Authority, individual self declaration certificate about their previous working, training, integrity, etc., It is opined that they find no time to verify on such matters.
VIPs/VVIPs/other Dignitaries, including some private persons are being protected and safeguarded—personal and physical security by one or more Police personnel with or without arms as per their entitlement.
This personal safety and security guarding system for them is adopted to secure the person’s safety and security from internal or external attacks wile they are at home, or in office, or while on travel by road, by train, or while they move on roads,processions,rallies,demonstrations,exhibitions,inspections,melas,and the like.
Their physical Body is well guarded by the security personnel from all corners even while they are on dais, platforms, trains, etc.
Why then the same security is not extended to the staff, the rail passengers, the men at work in the industries, etc. There shall be a Systematized security system for them also.
In the MBA manifesto also there shall be subject included as a specialization on the personal/personnel safety and security aspect in its administration and management system.
ARTICLE (Part: 2): Industrial security system and intelligence Services
In any industry or organization, security system and adaptation of Intelligence deployment is found be most neglected system and poorly employed with meager perks and fully depending on one or the other unorganized Security Agencies/Forces or through Contractors’ Agencies who might have not even registered their names in accordance with “The Private Security Agencies (Regulation) Act, 2005”, but they form as a part and parcel of big establishments, Organizations with sophisticated security systems and well established and (un) trained personnel with all the required mandatory Data as per the above Act.
They may be from ex-Army, Police, CPOs/other Armed Forces of the Union of India, and the like but, it may and should have been a concern of a well organized organization to check up their registration and dealings as per the guide lines laid in the above Act.
The present system of working in any industry by any professional or for that reason any personnel is to get more and more perks and they are in fact found to be least bothered or interested to find out the ways and means to apply their awareness and mind to bring growth to the organization by which they are employed. This matter is in respect of personal safety and security of their employees while inside and/or out side their Arena. What ever their level of the management cadre, they first think of their purse, take home salary and other ways and means to come closer to the Boss and as to how to get higher and higher positions or promotions.
For this type, they tend to express their work capabilities and workmanship only to that extent and till such time they get higher perks and upgraded with higher position. Their aim is found to be to work with such and such organization/s for such a period say around 4-5 years and get themselves recognized or organize their know how on their professional matters of interest and look for the right time to jump over to any other organization for extra perks and elevation which may include, a chance and leap to serve in other Organizations/countries and so on.
At this point of juncture itself the organizations security and inside story is becoming as the target and how much of the matters are discussed out side the office hours as gossip is not taken care of by the Management or its Managers/ Board of directors. They feel that it is a matter of routine in nature. That is all. There the actual story of Intelligence matters are leaked out or to that matter the security aspect, management weakness, exposure are coining out.
May be the information talked about is of any importance or not, to the person/personnel who spell out, the same is openly discussed, including that of the boss/heads of the departments, other weaknesses, their family history, and the people’s movements. The Competent Security personnel and their words who have been employed are not taken into confidence by the management, or by the Board of Directors; their presence and suggestions or the advice on security aspects are least taken for discussion which include the intelligence gathered on the industry’s physical and or on personnel working patterns and so on… In most of the conferences, meetings, seminars the security personnel presence is not sought for unless and until the management feel of insecurity…
Even if, by chance, are present in such meetings, they are asked not to open up their minds unless they ask to do so, and even if they ventilate their news about some personnel, it was just ignored and at times, the person (against whom the information was given in adverse) was asked to be careful as he is being watched.
There may be some differential equations between the working system and security deployment between the Central/State Governmental Organizations and the private/or the public sector organizations. But in most of the systems, the internal, the physical security of men and materials and that of the organization’s safety and security is a matter of concern.
In these days of competitive Intelligence hangovers and economic or industrial bypassing and awaiting a chance for intrusion, lean- over, take-over, the security systems and services are found to be playing a vital role under ground even with out the knowledge of the management and they(their working system) are not leak proof.
Insiders or to that matter, the family members, are the most targeted persons by the opponents, who are outwardly and in open terms seems to be the best coordinators, or the partners in all matters.
Industrial or education tours, visits by important persons accompanied by un known persons at specific intervals is the most watch dog situation for an industry who have not adopted to utilize the sophisticated intelligence trained security personnel.
Physical security of men, their material/belongings, and that of the industry is very much important, but it is also very much essential to get good intelligence officers, whose integrity shall be tested by reputation and not by the medals, ranks, status, position, and other rewards. The overt and the covert acts of the insiders and also the outsiders-visiting the organizations on one or the pretext or for the expansion, business deals, research scholars, celebrities, is also to be under watch dog system.
At least some of them (of the Management) are the soft persons through whom the matters are leaked out. This type of intelligence system working is not for material gain, but aimed to find out the ways and means to get the loop holes to be used in future course or when time permits and bounce upon for its merger, closure, etc. Even at these junctures, the security services, and the personnel utilized are of no use to the organization, as they are useful for nothing and not meant or trained for such activities.
This is at times used as competitive intelligence network through individuals or group of highly placed persons, against whom the lower or middle management security personnel have no approach to them. That is the weakness of the organization, which had no fore thought on such developments. Gathering information/intelligence is an Art- a systemized way of approach of the weak minded or the persons on some need-or who are/ can be pinned down for the three Ws-wealth, wine and women or of such nature. This Art cannot be equated with any matter of procedural practices, which can be just trained and adopted by specialized personnel alone, who are being utilized by the other organizations, even who/they might of in friendly nature, including partners?
No organization, to my knowledge and belief is found to be having specially employed any such security system personnel who are being utilized for collection of intelligence, assimilation or dissemination on matters of security system of its organizational set up so far.
In intelligence gathering on what ever subject or matter, there can be no legal or illegal means which are designed to be adopted or not to be adopted. The matters depend on the organizational set up of standards, its status, economic, and on competitiveness over national or international systems. All the matters depend upon the situation and the person on whom they are going to be taped or tapped, or dented upon.
It is not to be misunderstood as trapped, before tapping, they find out all types of information, weakness, rigidity, and the religious background, disgruntled or dissatisfied personnel, susceptible to or not, but they sanitize the matters and adopt suitable forms to suit to the situation of adoptability, etc.
Espionage, sabotage, other types of criminal activities shall not be clubbed with the security and intelligence working as they are to be dealt separately and independently like counter intelligence, surveillance, counter espionage, cyber crimes, white collar crimes, etc; they shall have to be dealt separately even though they may overlap or inter related in terms and on working aspect.
Economic imbalance, auditors reports, taxes, customs, tenders, in fights for power and authority, trade union activities, for and/or against the management, logistics--adjustments, or theft of materials, machinery failures, present trends of contract/outsourcing systems-- of personnel, drivers, cabs, are some of the fields where they might be interested and a tool for targeting its down fall, or surrender to others, etc.
Most of Organizations, including that of the Governmental Bodies, PSOs, does not adopt or go for their Vehicle’s GPR/GPRS system, may be that most of the vehicles are being taken on hire and being utilized for their personal/private purpose, usage, and with out log books and if this GPRS system introduced their movements are and shall be on record. They may feel to hide them.
In this aspect one has no say on the white collar criminals of the organization’s-insiders who adopt, or opt for wrongful gain, personal gain, and having become easy to contributory or compromiser’s formulae with others and such person’s identity and exposure may become a problematic issue which may ultimately reflect on its- management working aspect itself.
This may lead to lot of panic in the heads of the departments, chair-person and the CMD/or MDs and weeding out such personnel shall become a gigantic task with out getting the matter leaked out.
It was brought out that most of the companies now a day are inclined for employing their own security personnel, on the apprehensions that this may lead to have rights and privileges at par with that of other employees, and to cut short all these matters leaning toward engaging the private security services on contract or outsourcing basis. This may in most of the cases are going unchecked and leading to corrupt practices at all levels.
It may be that the contractor or outsourcing agencies show on record such and such number of security personnel but actually engage only one third or even less staff and the amounts they such receive shall be shared with the company’s head and others connected. They do not even maintain proper record about their provident fund account or the employee’s state insurance or health cards, attendance registers, muster rolls, duty registers, etc.
If any of the employee make hue and cry on his PF returns and repayments, the same shall be arranged on matching/fictitious names. It was also brought that the same guards are rotated in shifts at two or three different companies or organizations by showing different names and other ranks.
It was told that if the company’s dealers are still greedy, they may even create some non exiting contractors or the outsourcing agencies, make out some other records to show that the security guards were deployed in their organization for some period and get their payments passed and en cashed. In such cases, they informed that there shall be no contract agreements, quotations, no news paper quotes, but just utilize their powers and authority to the maximum limitation of amounts and manage the Boss with pleasant matters.
If the company’s interests run through in organizing their man power through some fictions/fictitious contractor and/or outsourcing agencies, they select interested parties who make out all the formalities on some names, which may be existing one, or non existing persons or companies, and formulate their signatures as of the outsourcing agency/contractor showing some fictitious company names with some addresses, including their house address as their working office/headquarters.
Herein, it was also informed that the organizational heads, at some times/places are leaning toward white collar criminality-corrupt practices through wicked minded contractors or the outsourcing agencies for their wrongful gain. They found to be adopting various dubious methods only for material or personal gain.
I have seen some advertisement given by Wipro for establishing their own security personnel, but it is not whether they succeeded or not.

When the Government run Home Guard’s administration and Management can just make out its corrupt practices so easily even for years together with or with out clandestine activates of near and the dear higher ups, and when the matter has leaked through Press and Media, the DGP level authority have accepted such illegal acts/activities., then one can imagine the fate of the private security system and its services. The Police have also admitted that there may be five times more in the strength of the actual Police in the State of Andhra Pradesh. They were silent about the Private Security Agencies (Regulation) Act, 2005 or about the adaptation of its Rules to apply to them in the State.

State, and the Tramways Bill became an Act in due course, and now the Metro Railways System is found to be based for Metro Railways; If Government wants, every thing shall be made easy. Let there be some consciences amongst the Governmental bodies and the Jan Lokpal Bill aspirants like Mr. Hazare, make the Draft Bill public through Media/press and on line, take the views of the citizens and put forward the same in the Parliament for Discussion.

FEATURE FOR FUTURE; DISCARD NONE IN LIFE:
The one who has the power of realization is the one who can bring transformation.
When something goes wrong we immediately begin to look for excuses, or explanations, why that mistake happened. This finishes our power of realization and we will not be able to recognize our own mistake. Then we will not be able to work at improving ourselves and we will not be able to bring any transformation.
Instead of looking for excuses for what all happened, we need to take the opportunity to check within ourselves and see our own mistake(s). When we recognize our mistake, however small it may be, we will be able to work on it. Only when we are able to realize our own mistake, will we be able to bring about transformation in ourselves.
(A): Did YOU feel INSULTED:
• At one place or the other, or on some occasions you might have been insulted or you have felt in yourself that you have been insulted, but for the reasons not exposed, you kept quite or digested the insult, but, still, you are not happy about it- the happening- the incident and you are unable to forgive or forget about the person(s), and so on:
• The INSULT, the words, is only a vibration in the air, just touching to your heart, the heart-breaking words; it is nothing but actually feeling a physical pain in the region of the heart. It occurs only when we does not compromise with the words spoken against or toward us, this is insult only when our discrimination has in fact failed us to understand in retrospective or prospective or when our mind thoughts stopped Yoga and meditation aspects:
• When we feel insulted and then utilize the Sadhana and retire into seclusion for a while and reflect our Guru-the soul and retrieve the matters in all the ways-- that;
• He/ or they insulted only my body, mind and little self, I did not loose any self respect at all, who are they to talk about me, I am not that;
• He can not insult my real self, the soul, because he himself is my own self; I shall make best use of it to analyze it;
• By insulting my little self, he is really helping me in dissociating with it;
• His insult has enabled me to come face to face with my own egoism, my interaction with my soul, God has given me an opportunity to crush it once for all;
• The only new point of version, now I discovered is—he has pointed out openly to me what he considers/considered as a defect in me; he has given me an opportunity to analyze the same for myself;
• O’ God, I am always thankful to him:
• Now, I do not get irritated and I shall not get angry and console my self and my soul:
(B): SUCCESS at our door step:
• Success never goes or runs away for you, unless you move, run away from it;
• To have success in your life- always ask questions for your self, discriminate between the good, the bad and the worst;
• Set goals, be a team leader and the best of all learn to be a team player first;
• Always try to listen to directions, follow through on the assignments, then success follows you;
• Have faith in the working system. Faith grows only when you use it;
• Be courageous and no looking back, it takes you to your goals and you reach the destiny;
• Courage makes you to stand up and speak boldly and with out fear, as fear is a contagious disease;
• Courage and fearlessness, both take you to sit down with calmness, steady mind and listen, and then act;
• Life is great, make use of it and make the most of it;
• Try to discover your weakness and rectify for future;
• Do not expose or explore your weaknesses to others, even to dear ones; life is precious and let them not use it to down grade you, think always that some one is awaiting to let you down;

Industrial security system and intelligence services/adaptation:
In any industry or organization, security system and intelligence deployment is found be most neglected system and poorly employed with meager perks and fully depending on one or the other unorganized security Forces or Agencies who have not even registered their names in accordance with “The Private Security agencies (Regulation) Act, 2005”, but they form as a part of big establishments with sophisticated security systems and well established and trained personnel. They may be from ex-army, police, CPOs (Central Police Organizations), and the like but, it may and should have been a concern of a well organized organization to check up their registration and dealings as per the guide lines laid in the above Act.
The present system of working in any industry by any professional or for that reason any personnel is to get more and more perks and they are in fact found to be least bothered or interested to find out the ways and means to apply their awareness and mind to bring growth to the organization by which they are employed.
What ever their level of the management cadre, they first think of their purse and take home salary and other ways and means to come closer to the boss and as to how to get higher and higher positions or promotions.
For this type, they tend to express their work capabilities and workmanship only to that extent and till such time they get higher perks and upgraded with higher position. Their aim is found to be to work with such and such organization/s for such period say around 4-5 years and get themselves recognized or organize their know how on their professional matters of interest and look for the right time to jump over to any other organization for extra perks and elevation which may include, a chance to serve in other countries and so on.
At this point of juncture itself the organizations security and inside story is becoming as the target and how much of the matters are discussed out side the office hours as gossip is not taken care of by the management or its managers. They feel that it is a matter of routine in nature. That is all. There the actual story of intelligence matters are leaked out or the security aspect, management weakness, exposure are coining out. May the information talked about is of any importance or not, the same is openly discussed, including that of the boss/heads of the departments, other weakness, their family history, and the people’s movements. The security personnel and their subordinate’s words who have been employed are not taken into confidence by the management, or the board of directors, as their presence and suggestions or the advice on security aspects, which include the intelligence gathered on the industry’s physical and or on personnel working patterns and so on… But they are asked not to open up their minds unless they ask to do so, and even if they ventilate their news about some personnel, it was just ignored and at times, the person was asked to be careful as he is being watched. There may be some differential equations between the working system and security deployment between the Central/State Governmental Organizations and the private/or the public sector organizations. But in most of the systems, the internal, physical security of men and materials and that of the organization’s safety and security is a matter of concern. In these days of competitive intelligence hangovers and economic or industrial bypassing and awaiting a chance for take-over, the security systems and services are found to be playing a vital role under ground even with out the knowledge of the management and they are not leak proof.
Insiders or to that matter, the family members, are the most targeted persons by the opponents, who are outwardly and in open terms seems to be the best coordinators, or the partners in all matters. Industrial or education tours, visits by important persons accompanied by un known persons at specific intervals is the most watch dog situation for an industry who have not adopted to utilize the sophisticated intelligence trained security personnel. Physical security of men, material, and that of the industry is very much important, but it is also very much essential to get good intelligence officers, whose integrity shall be tested by reputation and not by the medals, ranks, status, position, and other rewards. The overt and the covert acts of the insiders and also the outsiders-visiting the organizations on one or the pretext or for the expansion, business deals, research scholars, celebrities, and the like are the soft persons through whom the matters are leaked out. This type of intelligence system working is not for material gain, but aimed to find out the ways and means to get the loop holes to be used in future course or when time permits and bounce upon for its merger, closure, etc. Even at these junctures, the security services, and the personnel utilized are of no use to the organization, as they are useful for nothing and not meant or trained for such activities. This is at times used as competitive intelligence network through individuals or group of highly placed persons, against whom the lower or middle management security personnel have no approach to them. That is the weakness of the organization, which had no fore thought on such developments. Gathering information/intelligence is an Art- a systemized way of approach of the weak minded or the persons on some need-or who are can be pinned down for the three Ws-wealth, wine and women or of such natured Art cannot be equated with any matter of procedural practices, which can be just trained and adopted by specialized personnel alone, who are being utilized by the other organizations, even who/they might of in friendly nature, including partners?
No organization, to my knowledge and belief is found to have specially employed any such security system personnel who are being utilized for collection of intelligence, assimilation or dissemination on matters of security system of its organizational set up so far. These include systemized installation and monitoring of the equipments and so on.
In intelligence gathering on what ever subject or matter, there can be no legal or illegal means which are designed to be adopted or not to be adopted. The matters depend on the organizational set up of standards, its status, economic, and on competitiveness over national or international systems. All the matters depend upon the situation and the person on whom they are going to be taped or tapped.
it is not to be misunderstood as trapped, before tapping, they find out all types of information, weakness, rigidity, and the religious background, disgruntled or dissatisfied personnel, susceptible to or not, but they sanitize the matters and adopt suitable forms to suit to the situation of adoptability, etc.
Espionage, sabotage, other types of criminal activities shall not be clubbed with the security and intelligence working as they are to be dealt separately and independently like counter intelligence, surveillance, counter espionage, cyber crimes, white collar crimes, etc shall have to be dealt separately even though they may overlap or inter related in terms and working aspect.
Economic imbalance, auditors reports, taxes, customs, tenders, in fights for power and authority, trade union activities, for and/or against the management, logistics--adjustments, or theft of materials, machinery failures, present trends of contract/outsourcing systems-- of personnel, drivers, cabs, are some of the fields where they might be interest and a tool for targeting its down fall, or surrender to others, etc.
In this aspect one has no say on the white collar criminals of the organization’s-insiders who adopt, or opt for wrongful gain, and having become easy to contributory or compromiser’s formulae with others and such person’s identity and exposure may become a problematic issue which may ultimately reflect on its working aspect itself.
This may lead to lot of panic in the heads of the departments, chair-person and the CMD/or MDs and weeding out such personnel is a gigantic task with out getting the matter leaked out.
It was brought that most of the companies now a days without employing their own security personnel, may lead to have rights and privileges at par with that of other employees, and to cut short all these matters leaning toward engaging the security services on contract or outsourcing basis.
Herein, it was also informed that the organizational heads are leaning toward white collar criminality through wicked minded contractors or the outsourcing agencies for their wrongful gain. They found to be adopting various dubious methods.
The contractor or outsourcing agencies show on record such and such number of security personnel but actually engage only one third or even less staff and the amounts they such receive shall be shared with the company’s head and others connected. They do not even maintain proper record about their provident fund account or the employee’s state insurance or health cards.
If any of the employee make hue and cry on his PF returns and repayments organizations by showing different names.
It was told that if the company’s dealers are still greedy, they may even create some non exiting contractors or the outsourcing agencies, make out some other records to show that the security guards were deployed in their organization for some period and get their payments passed and en cashed. In such cases, they informed that there shall be contract agreements, quotations, no news paper quotes.
If the company’s interests run through in organizing their interests through some fictions outsourcing agencies, they select interested parties who make out all the formalities on some names, which might have been existing, or non existing persons or companies, and formulate their signatures as of the outsourcing agency., the same shall be arranged on vicious names. It was also brought that the same guards are rotated in shifts at two or three different companies or
There was a news item published in the Hindu daily news paper dated 13th Jan, 2011, Hyderabad edition, at page 5 about the Hyderabad City Police to regulate private security system by making an enactment to control and to have a check on private security Forces/Services, which may be ‘five times the police force’ strength in the State. It may not be out of place to doubt as to whether the Police have any official record with full details of each and every such Agencies now running even over and above the Police/Central Police Organizations in the State and also in the Private and Public Sectors which shall include the Railways, the Educational Institutions and the like. .
In this connection, may I take opportunity once again to state that there exist already a Law --“The Private Security agencies (Regulation) Act, 2005”, on the matter and that in my considered opinion , the State Government has to take appropriate action to implement the same in stricto sense. In this Act, there are several laid down Rules and regulations about the recruitment, training, registration of the Firms/Companies dealing with the Private Security Systems.
In the present context of safety and security which shall, also include the Intelligence System of the Organization, what so ever, for which the Government or the so called Private Security Forces deployed or employed. Keeping in view of infiltrations and the sort, it is very much essential to have a proper and strict Regulatory Body to control and have command on the ‘five times the police force’ strength in the State.

(HONOURABLE PRESIDENT OF INDIA PRESENTS PRESIDENTIAL COLOURS TO RAILWAY PROTECTION FORCE)-(“INDIAN RAILWAYS”- MONTHLY MAGAZINE-JULY-2006)
In a colorful, solemn and inspiring parade ceremony on 22nd May, 2006 Railway Protection Force (RPF) was presented with the Presidential Colours by the Hon’ble President of India, Dr.A.P.J. Abdul Kalam. The function was attended by Shri Lalu Prasad, Minister of Railways, shri R.Velu and Shri Naranbhai Rathwa, Ministers of State for Railways, Shri J.P. Batra, Chairman, Railway Board, Shri. A.K. Suri, DG/RPF and host of other dignitaries. The glittering function was organized in the RPSF premises in Dayabasti, Delhi. The Hon’ble President during his address greeted the Commanding Officers and all ranks of the RPF on the auspicious occasion.
The Hon’ble President in his speech emphasized on the need for use of information and communication technology in removing the jurisdictional anomalies arising between place of occurrence and place of reporting of crime by passengers. In his opinion the technologies, should provide a new dimension for policing, surveillance and dealing with criminal and maintaining law and order in the trains.
He also reiterated the need to remove the division of responsibility between GRP-Government Railway Police and the RPF-Railway Protection Force and empowering the RPF with legal powers to tackle all cognizable offences under the Indian Penal Code and all special acts so that there is a single point of responsibility for tackling crimes against railway passengers.
Dr. Kalam made the following suggestions to RPF to make rail journey safe and secure to the twelve million people including tourists who are making use of the rail services every day.
PERFORMANCE ANALYSIS:
An analysis should be conducted about the frequency and the type of crime occurring against Railway passengers in different parts of the country. Based on this analysis special strategy should be devised for combating crimes in areas where its frequency and intensity is very high for ensuring safe travel for passengers in the region.
Also, all the RPF units should be networked in the country so that rapid mobilization of additional resources can be done in difficult areas. The Indian Railway name for the service will further be enhanced by incorporating the following addition missions for Railways-RPF:
• A child below the age of ten or a senior citizen should be able to travel from Kanyakumari to Dispur (Assam) safely like a child or senior citizen is able to travel from Atlanta to Madurai by air without an escort.
• A young lady should be able to travel safely without a companion from Mumbai to Patna and reach home safely.
• All the passengers traveling in the trains should feel confident that their belongings are safe and that they do not have to spend sleepless nights worrying about the loss of their luggage.
• The international; tourists should be able to feel that train travel in India is passenger friendly, safe and secure.
Railway Protection Force should aim for realization of such a level of safety by the year 2010.

THE MISSING DIMENSIONS ON SECURITY AND SAFETY OF PASSENGERS-A POOINT OF VIEW-(“INDIAN RAILWAYS”- MONTHLY MAGAZINE-JUNE-2007- )
Honorable President of India Dr.A.P.J. Abdul Kalam has presented the Presidential Colours to the Railway protection Force on 22nd May, 2006 with certain observations and suggestions to the RPF to make rail journey safer and secure to the 12 million people including the tourists who are making use of the rail services every day.
The President reiterated:
(1) the need to remove the division of responsibility between the Government Railway Police(GRP) and Railway Protection Force(RPF);
(2) for empowering the RPF with legal powers to tackle all cognizable offences under the Indian Penal Code(IPC) and Special Acts so that there is a single point of responsibility for tackling crimes against railway passengers.
Even three decades earlier and thereafter also there were lot of dialogue and paper work on the matter. Referring to the policing and police service in the Indian Railways and the role of the RPF, its constraints and improvement, in the 1976, Shri. P.S. Ram Mohan Rio, IPS, DGP (Retd) and former Governor of the Tamil Nadu, when he worked as DIG-cum-Chief Security Commissioner, RPF, South Central Railway had observed that “the tendency to change the RPF with policing duties on the railways is on the increase, policing on the railways in regard to both maintenance or order and prevention, detection of crime relating to the person and to the passenger should be the exclusive concern of the GRP controlled by the state Governments.
Any scheme will not only result in multiplicity of agencies, frequent overlapping of responsibilities and efforts, but what is more important will generate needless frictions between the State Police Forces on the one side and the other agencies(RPF) entrusted with similar duties on the other. There is an urgent need to have another look at the pattern of organization the RPF and bring about suitable modification to enable it (RPF) to meet at least its basic tasks”.
In May, 1985 I have submitted an Article on the subject matter for publication in the RPF Journal etc., for which my Superior Officers might have thought as not worthy to be known by others and I think, filed the same.
Without going in detail about the organizational set up of the RPF, it is suffice here to mention that in terms of ‘ The Railway Protection Force Act, 1957’, it is constituted and maintained by the Central Government ( the Ministry of Railways and not by the Home Ministry) for better protection and security of the railway property. The act has been further amended in 1985 thereby the RPF has been equated as ‘Armed Force of the Union ‘.
In additions to the railway property, enhanced functions, powers and responsibilities about the safety and security of the passengers, their belongings, and passenger area were vested on the shoulders of the RPF by another amendment to the Act in the 2003 without empowering the RPF directly and independently to deal the offences pertaining to and connected therewith which eventually comes under the purview of the IPC. In short, all such cases detected or apprehended by the RPF have to be handed over to the GRP for further legal action like registration of the case, investigation and prosecution.
I would like to mention as to how the GRP and RPF are working on the railway system by quoting a sentence, “Nothing can be farther from the truth. In essence while the soil is ruined on the one hand by excessive chemicals the input ratio on the farm increases every season. The farmer is caught in a vicious cycle”—‘Slow Death: SURYA, March, 1989’.
Here, I equate soil as the RPF, excessive chemicals as the amendments to the Acts without Police powers to RPF and retaining the GRP as it was, the farm is the Railways, and farmer is the passenger.
The RPF is empowered by Law to deal with offences falling under the definition of ‘railway property’ under the Railway Property (Unlawful Possession) Act, 1966. There was amendment to the long title of the RPF Act, 1957 in the year 2003, wherein with out changing the meaning of ‘railway property’, the title has been enlarged and substituted to include passenger area and passengers; but the definition of railway property stands as it was in the year 1957, i.e.” railway property includes any goods, money or valuable security, or animal, belonging to, or in the charge or possession of, a railway administration.”.
So, to say, that the passengers and their belongings even though they come or remain within the railway /passenger area does not belong to or in the charge or in possession of a railway administration.
This fact itself shall bar the RPF from taking any action under Law to deal any offences pertaining to the above and hence invariably under all probabilities, all such cases have to be handed over to the GRP for further legal action.
Thus, the friction and imbalance between the RPF and the GRP working stood as it was earlier even after amendments to certain Acts without touching the base element of the legal powers to RPF on the offences falling under the IPC or allied Acts.
It is more and more very clear without any ambiguity that as per the statement of objects and reasons of the RPF Act, the legislation has designed to bring about a radical change in the functioning of the department, by reorganizing it, to provide in times of need, suitable assistance to the Railway Police who are charged mainly with the responsibility for overall maintenance of law and order in railway premises.
Ironically it can be seen that ’ The Police( Incitement to Disaffection) Act, 1922 ‘ has been made applicable to the RPF by virtue of its inclusion in the RPF Act making it to the subject of the Police Force only to the extent of said Act and not otherwise.
Again some other Acts like ‘ The Payment of wages Act, 1936 ‘, ‘ The Industrial Disputes Act, 1947 ‘, ‘ The Factories Act,1948 ‘ or any other Law corresponding thereto shall not be applicable to the RPF. It is very precisely added by the Statutes to exclude the RPF as they are working on the Railways system which is an industry and for some extent the RPF personnel were regarded as Railway servants only to deal some offences under the Railways Act.
Even though here were amendments to the Rules (in the years 1988, 1999, 2001), pertaining to the Railway Notices of/and inquiries into accidents Rules, Statutory Investigation into Railway Accidents Rules, the name of the RPF has not been incorporated at any corner of the said Rules for its participation or association in any manner in any such inquiries or as one of the member in the joint enquiries. Here again the GRP alone has been included and entrusted by Law to deal such matters and not the RPF. However, in all such matters RPF officers associate in all respects, submit their reports, etc.
In spite of all such official exclusion by way of Rules and the Law, as per local orders, if there were any lapses on the part of the RPF personnel to the extent of and up to the rank of Inspectors, they shall be taken up departmentally in regard to their duties etc., connected to the railway accidents and untoward incidents, on its reports/enquiries into such incidents.
By ‘The Police Act,1949 ‘, the Central Government has constituted a police force for general police-district embracing two or more Union Territories and for the establishment of a Police Force therefore. The same procedure can be adopted to enforce a single Police Force on the Indian Railways.
It is pertinent to spell out that there can be some consensus between the State Governments and the Central Government either to merge the RPF and the GRP as one Uniformed Force only to deal the offences on the Railway system or to find out ways and means to include the RPF, now may be one of Central Para Military Forces (CPMF), and now to be brought at par and as one of the Police Force like that of the other Central Police Organizations ( BSF, CISF, CRPF, ITBP, Coast Guard, etc ) even by amending ‘ The Police Act,1888’ or ‘ The Police Act,1861’.
The Central Government can also make a separate Act like ‘ The Police Act, 1949 ‘, thereby including the RPF befitting as a Police Force to deal cases exclusively on Railways. The Central Government can also constitute a separate or special railway districts embracing parts of two or more States and Union Territories, and extend it to every such part of the said district the powers and jurisdiction of a Police Force as belonging to a State to be specified in the Notification. By this, the RPF can also be vested with the powers and functions of the Police Force on Railway’s System.

metro railways-tramways- safety and security, and a lot....
MUCH AUDO ABOUT NOTHING: metro railways: It seems now the T R S is very much concentrating on the Metro Railway Project Works which have already begun in the GHMC areas, even without fulfilling the terms and conditions of the contract agreement of the State/HMR made now with L&T; and on its routes; we hope he shall go in right perspective duly knowing what are the Court cases now pending in the Honorable High Court of A.P., what actually he meant to spell out about the metro railway, or about the tramway ; what does the Law, the Constitution of India, and the Schedules of the Constitution define and distinguish between the metro railway and the tramways ; under what authority and the Law a State like the Andhra Pradesh can go ahead with the construction Project for a Metro Railway; whether the A.P. State has passed any Law for this purpose to go ahead with construction of the Metro Railway fully owned by the A.P. State under the HMR command and control; whether the HMR can start the metro railways under the guise and cover of the A.P. State Tramways Act; Can the TRS or Mr. KCR or any of the other supporters can find out all these acts going un notices and with out proper chain and linkage system by some vested interests under name and style of HMR-Phase-I lands and the Phase-II lands made out and put together for handing over for construction of complex buildings/multistoried for commercial purposes which were already, to be earmarked to some interested parties in the name and style of metro railway station buildings arena. He shall first study as to what are the provisions and conditions made in the AP Tramways Act, and then about the Metro Railways Act,1978,2002,2009, its amendments and adaptation by the State Government for construction of the Metro Railways, and who shall take up the work, whether the AP State Govt., or the Centre, and what does the work of the Railways in this matter as per Constitutions and of the procedure to be followed by the Centre, the Parliament, the AP State Assembly, and lot of things before he actually takes up the issue of Metro Railway construction Project work in the GHMC/Hyderabad, Secunderabad area…
… thoughts-go ahead..: my blog: seshadrivikralaviewsandvision.blogspot.com: and also http://safetyandsecurityofrailpassengers.blogspot.com/2011/06/new-post.html
• There was some news: As" Namma Metro Bangalore” comes under the Mysore Tramways Act, certain amendments have to be made in the Act so as to bring it in accordance with the Metro Railways (Amendment) Act, 2009..How about this problem with - the Hyderabad (Andhra Pradesh) Metro Railway. Whether there were any such amendments to AP Tramways Act, or any other Act passed to tackle the issue arising out of or in the consequence of the words 'tramway' and metro rail' to make a legal cover to suit the tramways and the metro-rail-ways? Replacement of and go ahead with the metro rail in place of tram way? This is only an academic interest to know more about the action being taken by HMR also: The ways and means to get tramways changed over to metro rail for construction, operation and maintenance by the State may have to be looked into in new aspect as to whether any post facto Law made also be taken to make or have legal cover for all the things already taken up and implements for Metro Railways, and the amount of several corers of pubic money spent on this so far, which can also be brought to books; what provisions contained in the Constitution of India and how to apply them to cover legally, if need be to get some solution, if already made out , like some amendments, provisions, ipso facto to apply retrospectively, and available with you; if you are in possession of these matters kindly enlighten me to add to my knowledge. What are the Provisions contained for the Central Government, the States, the Union Territories about administration, establishment, maintenance and control of the Police/GRP/RPF conferment of powers for and to take care of the safety and security of the rail passengers on/over Indian Railways, Metro Railways, and the Tramways systems, not in a distribution and share model as is now going on, but to have a single Uniformed Force to take legal action on all sorts of Law and Order, Crime and other sorts, by a single Uniformed Force, whether under the Command and Control of the Centre or of the States; The idea to have 1500 marshals for Metro Rail construction Areas/cites coverage is found to be not a bad thing, but how& who can take care of the honest and sincere Contractors/Outsourcing Agencies for supply of this type of manpower; is there any such Agency, may be, I have no idea/knowledge, to come forward with fool-proof identity and certification of its legality and well being in all respects passing through the provisions as contained ,& laid down in the India's Private Agencies Security Act; What are the relation between the Union and the States/UTs on this matters as per the Constitution of India/and its Schedules; whether the State Government can out rightly take up the metro rail construction without the involvement of the CG/Ministry of Railways; if so under what provisions of the Law, or the Constitution; or are there any via media rules, Law to go ahead with the metro rail in place of tramways without any amendments in the Law or without prior sanction and approval of the Parliament or with out changing the Constitution to suit to the State to go with construction of the Metro railways in place of Tram ways. These are general topics we discuss, but could not get proper and correct path to move. What are the stipulations incorporated in The Schedules of the Indian Constitution about the Railways, the Metro Rail, and Tramways; who are empowered to construct, maintain railways, metro rail and tramways; what are the different provisions for them to adopt and apply for making a solitary unformed Police Force exclusively for the Railways; what are the differential points to identify these individual and or different aspects of working and under whose authority State or Central; Of late, since about 6 months or so, some intellectuals and interested parties are having some discussions on the matter of HMR and talking about the provisions of Law and other factors applied/applying or applicable to it, as is being seen for the Bangalore Metro Rail processing, and the applicability of above mentioned aspects for HMR. Everything shall be alright; there is no doubt about it, as long as it continues. But then who is going to bell the cat. please go through my emails being sent along with some attachments which may attract some provisions concerning and connected, HMR, Law, private security -insecure for the industry, safety and security of rail passenger and their belongs, and on crunch of matters; why they are side lining these issues, police and society, corruption, white collar crimes, private security system, intelligence and a lot other matters, go in between the lines do not discard any. I earnestly and sincerely pray you all to bestow some time on this hot topics and send your valuable views, comments, criticism, ways and means to adopt the same; pros and cons on this issue, etc..., not for some person's sake, but in the interest of he National prosperity and to save Nation's money ; You may go through some other Acts, like Metro Railway Act, 1978; 2002; 2009; and other Tramways Acts, including AP Tramways Act; vis-Ã -vis with provisions contained in the Constitution of India, etc so as to get benefit of your efforts by the commuters of HMR in near future. As I am interested that one shall not try to down grade the other, or try to find fault in the machinery of working system and lastly attribute corrupt practices and scam, as we seeing now, like in CWG, 2G,accusation on or over ˜1995 Purulia Arms Drop case, or luxury cars import scam case' wherein the DRI did not rule out the involvement of some embassies, etc.; Always try to uplift the right matters and respect them with least nods or so at the right time for prosperity without fear and favour, like wise one shall not focus on personal gains and/or material gain interests in weight but for prospective matters that the Organization shall come up like the Honest of all and above the sky. Instead of pin pointing and trying to find fault with other's views and vision on any matter if expressed, or trying to adopt ways and methods by trying or in clouding the Intelligence reports concerning to the men and materials or by fully depending on the others working capabilities, try always to find out factual matters even by going for GPS/GPSR vehicles and introducing ' Log Book system; try to go through them with patience and by that you may get some points to over come left behind or the matters you might have not tried to concentrate also may cone up much later on, keep a stock of every persons voices and the lot through cctv’s...why try to show mercy and sympathy, on whose cost, are they going to help the organization in future, nothing at all; while in inside or out side they try only to find fault, that is their nature, then why to continue, to dupe or drown.
• What are the provisions made out/contained in the Special Regulatory Commission proposed (2006) to be established to supervise Metro Rail Projects in India. Whether any such Metro Rail Projects Regulatory Commission has been set up as on date or not? If so may I get some points? Whether any enactment or any amendment has taken in the Metro Railways Act, 2009(to any other similar Acts, 2002, 1978 or other Acts) to incorporate or include exclusive powers for State Governmental Bodies to go ahead with Metro Railways with out previous sanction, approval or involvement of the Ministry of Railways for example: for the Andhra Pradesh - Hyderabad Metro Railways?::: or to that fact how about Jaipur Metro Rail of Rajasthan State: Whether any provision, amendment, or any other steps taken to apply Act. No: 34 of 2009 to Andhra Pradesh State in reference to its Hyderabad Metro Railway's construction in Hyderabad Metropolitan City.
• In my considered feeling and opinion, in Hyderabad /GHMC or to that matter any where one can underground on some special occasions, but can it be possible for the Metro Railways to go underground. Can the topography and geographical conditions especially in around Hyderabad one can find several numbers of hillock(s) ,may be ,at the same time, same length and breadth and even more the hillock might have spread over to some meters or even kilometers length by which ,even the foreign modeled machines ,may not be in a position to ditch the ground to the extent possible- say in-depth about 50-100 meters, to make it possible for laying out a tunnel for the purpose of running a metro railway tunnels, with sophisticated railway stations at every one kilometer length or so; Of course, only the expertise engineers and Geography Scientists can only determine about the fate and change over for a underground metro railways in GHMC Arena.
• With all these struggles and push and pull nature, let the Competent Authority shall decide whether the above mentioned doubts can be worked successfully towards going further with the metro railways in place of tramways as per the Law, the Constitution of India, the Schedules, defining on the point and question of metro railways, tramways, the Laws framed therein, an so on…

HYDERABAD METRO RAIL PROJECT PASSES A MAJOR HURDLE
[Date: May 2nd, 2011]
Hyderabad: The Hyderabad Metro Rail project on Sunday passed a major hurdle with the South Central Railway (SCR) giving clearance to four Metro Rail crossings over the railway tracks in a proposal submitted by the HMR officials.
This is the first set of ‘general arrangement drawings’ (GAD) approved by the South Central Railway in a record two months after their submission. This will enable the HMR to build elevated metro rail crossings over the SCR railway tracks at Bharatnagar, Lakdikapul, Malakpet and Begumpet.
“Construction of elevated metro rail structures over the railway tracks is a critical activity determining the progress of the metro rail project and the early approvals accorded by SCR would enable speedy progress of the Metro Rail project,” said Mr N.V.S. Reddy, managing director, HMR.
Given the complex arrangements, technical complications and the legalities of ‘Right of Way’ as per the Indian Railways Act, railway clearance for elevated metro rail crossings over the railway tracks is normally a prolonged affair.

• There was some news: As" Namma Metro Bangalore” comes under the Mysore Tramways Act, certain amendments have to be made in the Act so as to bring it in accordance with the Metro Railways (Amendment) Act, 2009..How about this problem with - the Hyderabad (Andhra Pradesh) Metro Railway. Whether there were any such amendments to AP Tramways Act, or any other Act passed to tackle the issue arising out of or in the consequence of the words 'tramway' and metro rail' to make a legal cover to suit the tramways and the metro-rail-ways? Replacement of and go ahead with the metro rail in place of tram way? This is only an academic interest to know more about the action being taken by HMR also: The ways and means to get tramways changed over to metro rail for construction, operation and maintenance by the State may have to be looked into in new aspect as to whether any post facto Law made also be taken to make or have legal cover for all the things already taken up and implements for Metro Railways, and the amount of several corers of pubic money spent on this so far, which can also be brought to books; what provisions contained in the Constitution of India and how to apply them to cover legally, if need be to get some solution, if already made out , like some amendments, provisions, ipso facto to apply retrospectively, and available with you; if you are in possession of these matters kindly enlighten me to add to my knowledge. What are the Provisions contained for the Central Government, the States, the Union Territories about administration, establishment, maintenance and control of the Police/GRP/RPF conferment of powers for and to take care of the safety and security of the rail passengers on/over Indian Railways, Metro Railways, and the Tramways systems, not in a distribution and share model as is now going on, but to have a single Uniformed Force to take legal action on all sorts of Law and Order, Crime and other sorts, by a single Uniformed Force, whether under the Command and Control of the Centre or of the States; The idea to have 1500 marshals for Metro Rail construction Areas/cites coverage is found to be not a bad thing, but how& who can take care of the honest and sincere Contractors/Outsourcing Agencies for supply of this type of manpower; is there any such Agency, may be, I have no idea/knowledge, to come forward with fool-proof identity and certification of its legality and well being in all respects passing through the provisions as contained ,& laid down in the India's Private Agencies Security Act; What are the relation between the Union and the States/UTs on this matters as per the Constitution of India/and its Schedules; whether the State Government can out rightly take up the metro rail construction without the involvement of the CG/Ministry of Railways; if so under what provisions of the Law, or the Constitution; or are there any via media rules, Law to go ahead with the metro rail in place of tramways without any amendments in the Law or without prior sanction and approval of the Parliament or with out changing the Constitution to suit to the State to go with construction of the Metro railways in place of Tram ways. These are general topics we discuss, but could not get proper and correct path to move. What are the stipulations incorporated in The Schedules of the Indian Constitution about the Railways, the Metro Rail, and Tramways; who are empowered to construct, maintain railways, metro rail and tramways; what are the different provisions for them to adopt and apply for making a solitary unformed Police Force exclusively for the Railways; what are the differential points to identify these individual and or different aspects of working and under whose authority State or Central; Of late, since about 6 months or so, some intellectuals and interested parties are having some discussions on the matter of HMR and talking about the provisions of Law and other factors applied/applying or applicable to it, as is being seen for the Bangalore Metro Rail processing, and the applicability of above mentioned aspects for HMR. Everything shall be alright; there is no doubt about it, as long as it continues. But then who is going to bell the cat. please go through my emails being sent along with some attachments which may attract some provisions concerning and connected, HMR, Law, private security -insecure for the industry, safety and security of rail passenger and their belongs, and on crunch of matters; why they are side lining these issues, police and society, corruption, white collar crimes, private security system, intelligence and a lot other matters, go in between the lines do not discard any. I earnestly and sincerely pray you all to bestow some time on this hot topics and send your valuable views, comments, criticism, ways and means to adopt the same; pros and cons on this issue, etc..., not for some person's sake, but in the interest of he National prosperity and to save Nation's money ; You may go through some other Acts, like Metro Railway Act, 1978; 2002; 2009; and other Tramways Acts, including AP Tramways Act; vis-Ã -vis with provisions contained in the Constitution of India, etc so as to get benefit of your efforts by the commuters of HMR in near future. As I am interested that one shall not try to down grade the other, or try to find fault in the machinery of working system and lastly attribute corrupt practices and scam, as we seeing now, like in CWG, 2G,accusation on or over ˜1995 Purulia Arms Drop case, or luxury cars import scam case' wherein the DRI did not rule out the involvement of some embassies, etc.; Always try to uplift the right matters and respect them with least nods or so at the right time for prosperity without fear and favour, like wise one shall not focus on personal gains and/or material gain interests in weight but for prospective matters that the Organization shall come up like the Honest of all and above the sky. Instead of pin pointing and trying to find fault with other's views and vision on any matter if expressed, or trying to adopt ways and methods by trying or in clouding the Intelligence reports concerning to the men and materials or by fully depending on the others working capabilities, try always to find out factual matters even by going for GPS/GPSR vehicles and introducing ' Log Book system; try to go through them with patience and by that you may get some points to over come left behind or the matters you might have not tried to concentrate also may cone up much later on, keep a stock of every persons voices and the lot through cctv’s...why try to show mercy and sympathy, on whose cost, are they going to help the organization in future, nothing at all; while in inside or out side they try only to find fault, that is their nature, then why to continue, to dupe or drown.
• What are the provisions made out/contained in the Special Regulatory Commission proposed (2006) to be established to supervise Metro Rail Projects in India. Whether any such Metro Rail Projects Regulatory Commission has been set up as on date or not? If so may I get some points? Whether any enactment or any amendment has taken in the Metro Railways Act, 2009(to any other similar Acts, 2002, 1978 or other Acts) to incorporate or include exclusive powers for State Governmental Bodies to go ahead with Metro Railways with out previous sanction, approval or involvement of the Ministry of Railways for example: for the Andhra Pradesh - Hyderabad Metro Railways?::: or to that fact how about Jaipur Metro Rail of Rajasthan State: Whether any provision, amendment, or any other steps taken to apply Act. No: 34 of 2009 to Andhra Pradesh State in reference to its Hyderabad Metro Railway's construction in Hyderabad Metropolitan City.
• In my considered feeling and opinion, in Hyderabad /GHMC or to that matter any where one can underground on some special occasions, but can it be possible for the Metro Railways to go underground. Can the topography and geographical conditions especially in around Hyderabad one can find several numbers of hillock(s) ,may be ,at the same time, same length and breadth and even more the hillock might have spread over to some meters or even kilometers length by which ,even the foreign modeled machines ,may not be in a position to ditch the ground to the extent possible- say in-depth about 50-100 meters, to make it possible for laying out a tunnel for the purpose of running a metro railway tunnels, with sophisticated railway stations at every one kilometer length or so; Of course, only the expertise engineers and Geography Scientists can only determine about the fate and change over for a underground metro railways in GHMC Arena.
• With all these struggles and push and pull nature, let the Competent Authority shall decide whether the above mentioned doubts can be worked successfully towards going further with the metro railways in place of tramways as per the Law, the Constitution of India, the Schedules, defining on the point and question of metro railways, tramways, the Laws framed therein, an so on…

HYDERABAD METRO RAIL PROJECT PASSES A MAJOR HURDLE
[Date: May 2nd, 2011]
Hyderabad: The Hyderabad Metro Rail project on Sunday passed a major hurdle with the South Central Railway (SCR) giving clearance to four Metro Rail crossings over the railway tracks in a proposal submitted by the HMR officials.
This is the first set of ‘general arrangement drawings’ (GAD) approved by the South Central Railway in a record two months after their submission. This will enable the HMR to build elevated metro rail crossings over the SCR railway tracks at Bharatnagar, Lakdikapul, Malakpet and Begumpet.
“Construction of elevated metro rail structures over the railway tracks is a critical activity determining the progress of the metro rail project and the early approvals accorded by SCR would enable speedy progress of the Metro Rail project,” said Mr N.V.S. Reddy, managing director, HMR.
Given the complex arrangements, technical complications and the legalities of ‘Right of Way’ as per the Indian Railways Act, railway clearance for elevated metro rail crossings over the railway tracks is normally a prolonged affair. The organizations seeking Right of Way permissions over railway tracks have to satisfy the stringent conditions of the Indian Railways codes and rules.
In a meeting with the HMR officials on Sunday, the SCR officials indicated that the approvals for the remaining crossing points at Alugadda Bavi, Chilkalguda, Oliphant Bridge and Wadi end of Secunderabad Railway station (western end) will be cleared shortly.
The railway authorities have accorded approvals for the first four Metro Rail crossings with the condition that proper integration of Metro Rail stations with the nearest railway station shall be achieved by HMR providing walkways, skywalks, parking facilities, etc. They have also stipulated that at Secunderabad station, the nearest Metro Rail station shall be connected to various platforms of the railway station with skywalks and escalators.
Mr N.V.S. Reddy said that the railway safety specifications, vertical (height) and horizontal clearances, infringement regulations etc., would be strictly adhered to.
